people in my chinese class are stupid

[Andrew Bohan]

the teacher holds up a pen and goes "这是书吗?" and one guy answers "不. 那不是笔."

can you believe some people?

[FRpilot]

what does that mean

[dct223]

haha.... what a bad teacher =P

[Andrew Bohan]

what's even better, is that a few more people made the same kind of mistake even after the teacher scolded the guy. haha

[Chernobyl]

ichi

roku
nana
hachi
kyuu
jyuu
hyaku

[steaLthy240]

yi
er
san
si
wu
liu
chi
ba
jiu

chinese is one crazy language, but it helps because the characters are mostly comprised of radicals and other characters :cool:

[Andrew Bohan]

i already took every japanese class offered at my school, so learning chinese is like only half as hard as it would otherwise be. :)

[oumu]

i already took every japanese class offered at my school...

ummm
nani o shimasu ka? i dont know any other languages besides english

[KoukiMonster]

ummm
nani o shimasu ka? i dont know any other languages besides english


what to do?

not sure why you put the 'o' particle since you are not referring to a direct object. and you don't need a question mark because ka is sort of like a question mark you would just put a circled period.

[Phlip]

Damn, my engrish sucks... Good thing I have no intentions on ever visting a country where I don't speak the language

[mjjstang]

这是书吗 (this is the book)

不. 那不是笔 (that is not a pen)

im not chinese and i dont know if my translation is correct but i use a web based program called bablefish to translate stuff like japanese to english so i know what im buying from yahoo auctions jp. it doesnt make complete sense sometimes but it helps.

http://babelfish.altavista.com/
try it.

[ghostuss]

OK the teacher said," Is this a Book?" The student answered, "No, that is not a pen".

Oh, btw. The teacher was holding a pen so yea... he was trying to amuse us but dude you should see our japanese class.

Damn that software is wrong... Anyways good find, I need that software to translate some stuff too. Too bad it doesn't translate PDF files / writing piece as a picture.

[aznpoopy]

chinese is gay. iirc they only teach simplified chinese in colleges so that makes these classes even more gay.

HOLY CRAP, ive been wondering where the hell people post up chinese characters...

SHI SHI NI better yet, 谢谢

what are you talking about? the chinese class i took taught traditional AND simplified. and dont say chinese is gay, your straight up being ignorant.

[Andrew Bohan]

in beginning class at my school they teach only simplified, but i went and got the traditional edition of the workbook. and most of my chinese speaking friends are from taiwan so i get it from them too.
second year class teaches both traditional and simplified.
of course, knowing japanese already, i already know a bunch of traditional characters.

[91rusty240sx]

its pretty hard to learn a language if you dont use it everyday.

[aznpoopy]

what are you talking about? the chinese class i took taught traditional AND simplified. and dont say chinese is gay, your straight up being ignorant.

i am chinese. my mom is from xian moved to taiwan as a baby right after ww2. my dad is straight up native taiwanese born in kaoshiung. i speak mandarin fluently and my girlfriend is cantonese. i'd have to try pretty hard to be ignorant in general matters that are chinese.

[Andrew Bohan]

you tell 'im, poopy!

[91rusty240sx]

diew, just because your parents are taiwanese and your taiwanese, doesnt mean your not ignorant. wow, my parents are cantonese and i speak cantonese, does that mean i can say its gay? if you dont like chinese, thats fine, but dont talk shit about it just cause you know mandarin.

[aznpoopy]

omg. you need to relax. it's pretty obvious that since i am chinese, i don't really consider anything and everything chinese to be 'gay'. wtf would that even mean? that im some anti chinese chinese person? jesus christ.

:duh:

edit: maybe i should spell it out for you; it was a joke and not to be taken seriously.

[91rusty240sx]

jesus, mary AND joseph. i dunno, it seemed to me like you were one of those guys like in the dave chappelle show, when the black guy was a spokesman for the KKK.

[steaLthy240]

^^^ haha that was some funny stuff :rofl:

[Tygma]

hmm... CyKA

[whooha1217]

can u type in traditional, cant read simplifyed...

[w0nderbr3ad]

when i took up chinese they didn't focus on simplified. Everything was in traditional form. So memorizing characters got confusing unless you knew the meaning of radicals, but then the teacher was saying it was like reading a story from the characters or something. Class was hard as hell. Easy to learn because you don't have to conjugate verbs but still a pain in the ass at times. But I didn't mind my group was 3 korean girls and me being the only guy :fawkd: So anyway, zaijian!!! haha

[susuki1220]

夠了夠了... :bash:

[Grant]

the teacher holds up a pen and goes "这是书吗?" and one guy answers "不. 那不是笔."

can you believe some people?


他媽的, 你用剪體我這麼看得懂?

Haha.. I was taught using traditional characters, guess I'm stupid too since I'm in chinese class huh?

幹你老媽, 死小孩

just seeing if you could read it. not being serious (dont take it personally)
