@Joldberg monotoning Chinese doesn't work. Like at all.

mainlanders cant even begin to understand if you fuck up the pitch. If you go to a restaurant, and you point at the menu and try to say "I want this" in mandarin, but you fuck up one of the words, their brains cant fill in the gaps and understand what you are trying to say

they just sit there confused and can't read between the lines or use context clues or anything

i swear

no cause it would like a deaf person talking

you gotta sit there and really think what they're saying

but cmon what possible things could i be saying\

im in your restauraunt pointing at the menu after calling you over

theres only a few things it could be

im not gonna point at the tofu and say "i like cigarettes"

Well what was tge point of becoming commies if you didn't fix your language while geniciding everyone and destroying culture

Mandarin has been around for less than 50 years I think

nah must be like 70 years now

Why would anyone decide to make thier language pitch based

its just another systen

its the same you know your abc

they just have sounds that are just those sounds

Except thier sounds are based on notes like they are birds

its like c s and z

potentially they can sound similar

I can get that but adding nasal, throat and chest sounds fucks with me. I can't even get my mouth to make some sounds that are apparently essential

Anyway,are there any recommended apps to learn the basics? Or should I just torrent Rosetta stone.

there was a small site I used for a while

called nuli.com or something

never kept to it

I can recommend https://www.chineasy.com

Are Chinese people attracted to any particular race?

Are they racist against any of them?

where are you from?

Does it matter?

yes it does

Just wondering

so I can make my point

White ppl?

No no, just the country

I'd rather not

well I wouldn't say there is more or less racism in China than in other parts of the world

Asians in general are just more open about it, less strict on political correctness

What about the dating culture? Are they as open as the western countries?

But I wouldn't say they think much different than people of other places of the world. You might encounter all kinds of different people

You obviously have a bonus being a foreigner in terms of dating culture, all around the world
