Is taiwan a good place to learn chinese? Imagine its more expensive than mainland but you dont need to deal with mainland

2018-06-27 16:34:29 UTC  

internet's a good place for language learnings

2018-06-27 16:34:42 UTC  

duolingo has a course on mandarin iirc

2018-06-27 16:34:46 UTC  

Taiwan isn't that expensive, I suggest you take a look at forumosa for living costs, there are people who report that they get along and have fun on 25 000 NT$ / month

2018-06-27 16:34:57 UTC  

@turnerturing are you a westerner?

2018-06-27 16:35:03 UTC  

it's very cheap by western standards

2018-06-27 16:35:09 UTC  

around 750usd a month?

2018-06-27 16:35:15 UTC  

around 800

2018-06-27 16:35:37 UTC  

slightly more expensive than polan now

2018-06-27 16:35:40 UTC  

anyway, taiwan is good if you want to learn mandarin

2018-06-27 16:35:44 UTC  

Western gook but that is rather cheap. Don't really care about fun more than learning it to help out my dad

2018-06-27 16:35:45 UTC  

But I'd really consider that the bare minimum, also you won't be able to live in the capital with that

2018-06-27 16:35:46 UTC  

it's spoken pretty much everywhere in taipei

2018-06-27 16:36:16 UTC  

keep in mind that the writing differs from the mainland

2018-06-27 16:36:36 UTC  

other areas, i heard they like to use min nan language colloquially more; can you confirm? @porco

2018-06-27 16:36:46 UTC  

Oh, that is going to not be very useful then.

2018-06-27 16:36:48 UTC  

yes the more you go south, the less mandarin

2018-06-27 16:36:59 UTC  

my girlfriend's parents don't speak mandarin at all for instance

2018-06-27 16:37:04 UTC  

@turnerturing traditional and simplified difference isnt too big

2018-06-27 16:37:09 UTC  

you can easily learn both

2018-06-27 16:37:39 UTC  

yes but if the goal is to learn business-chinese, I'd rather go to Shenzhen

2018-06-27 16:38:04 UTC  

Isn't that place super expensive?

2018-06-27 16:38:14 UTC  

really depends on how you live

2018-06-27 16:38:24 UTC  

I don't think it would cost more than Taiwan

2018-06-27 16:39:31 UTC  
2018-06-27 16:39:31 UTC  

By business chinese you mean manderin and simplified chinese or is there some branch from chinese now.

2018-06-27 16:39:52 UTC  

what are you learning it for?

2018-06-27 16:40:05 UTC  

I think Turner would like to get your expertise on learning chinese
