Well, I hope at least some of you are culturally diverse. I have also noted a trend of racism among today's society, which is completely unacceptable. Especially towards Asian cultures.
Still, how many of you speak a different language than English?
日本語を話すことができるか?
I'm 100% Chinese and people tend to make fun of Chinese people first when it comes to insulting asians.
Well, that is understandable in a way, the way I learned it from my ancestors was that the states is noticing that China is growing into a world power kinda thing and of course, US doesn't really like that (why they like to blame a lot of things such as pollution and fake brand name items on China). No offence to amercians, but yeh, I still do respect your opinion, although I find it disrepectful how people around here like to throw insults at Chinese people first when it comes to insulting asians.
Well of course, this is here in Canada that people apparently find it funny.
But back to the subject, I fluently speak English and both types of Chinese.
I know very little French and Spanish (enough to say simple sentences, such as "I like your bum", "Can I have something to eat", and other simple sayings.
Also know some swear words in Korean, but then, that is pretty much it.
I saw something in the apple store
it was a cd on how to help you speak japanese
Dose anyone think that its a way to learn it?
Yes, in stores you see numerous programs teaching you basic aspects of a language too. In my local Staples you can purchase Spanish, French, and Japanese CDs i believe.
You could always take a course online, which I'm doing atm myself.
