yes, but you'd better be good at what u do and work for a foreign company
I am quite good at shitposting
I can derail whole threads on 4chan with one comment
learn hokkien for bonus points
Taiwan euthanizes autists , though, so you might want to go work in greece instead
you'll pull like crazy
I know min-nan basics
Because my gf's parents barely speak mandarin
I just see
Hokkien = Min Nan
I have the Cantonese skills of an 8 year old lol
``` In common parlance, Southern Min usually refers to Hokkien, including Amoy and Taiwanese Hokkien; both are combinations of Quanzhou and Zhangzhou speech. The Southern Min dialect group also includes Teochew, though Teochew has limited mutual intelligibility with Hokkien. Southern Min is not mutually intelligible with Eastern Min, Cantonese, or Standard Chinese.```
in fact, I have a 250-300 words vocabulary
chinese tourists take their bad habits with them
It's not even the most useless language I've ever learned because I used to work in objective c
here is in the uk
Hokkien sounds better than mandarin tbh
yes but it's much more fucked up to learn
no quality resources
true
most confusing romanisation system ever
The next problem with learning Hokkien is that speakers pretend to understand you even if they don't
Never figured out why
its rude to ask "excuse me what the fuck did you say about my dead poodle?" maybe
or some sort of similar cultural thing
Yes but if I say "your dead poodle is a retarded piece of shit" you don't answer "yes yes sure"
probably because they're too fascinated about a westerner speaking it
"no not the poodle .. the noodle bar"
in Asia, they treat you like a god if you're white and speak their language, however badly
people believe if kids have to pee, they cant hold it, they must go exactly where they are standing immediately
