That looked more viable than this

well this is just a long bus

the only problem is bus stations aren't built for this

"especially how Asians go hard on the breaks"

Holy shit there's an Asian bus driver here who does exactly that

He's on time though because of how fast he goes so shrug

triggered

if Taiwan isn't China then why do they speak Chinese?

@porco southern China Sea, also mine

Scary bit of land grab going on in that area

With chinks hogging up islands, expanding them to house military bases

USA speaks English, doesn't mean they are from England.

that's what they think

You don't hear much Chinese on the streets in Taiwan, especially in the South and East @plasticsword

Min Nan still the preferred language outside of Taipei?

By far. My girlfriend's parents don't even speak proper Mandarin

But they live in the middle of nowhere so I don't know if that counts

That's a stretch

I've only met 1 or 2 families who still speak min nan from Taiwan.

almost everyone i know here knows how to speak taiwanese/minnan

it's generally considered a lot more casual

though it can just depend on whatever both parties feel like, i've heard it used in many different settings

certain politicians that want to appear more "taiwanese" will use taiwanese in speeches

as with @porco said, if you go south of taipei, taiwanese will be used more and more until it's just what people will assume you'll use by default

I wish there was a nice resource to learn min nan / Taiwanese from English

it's a beautiful language and I only know a handful of insults

ji bai

kan ni na

pua ma :D

only words I know
