- It is hard because there are meaning behind each and every character. For example love in traditional chinese is 愛. The little '心’ in the middle represents heart. The word itself conveys a meaning. Whereas love in simplied chinese is 爱. There is no heart in it. There is no beauty in it. Learning the strokes are hard but once you know the meaning or the little different characters that made up of the final character itself, you'll be mesmerised in the beauty of traditional chinese. Sidenote: its easier to learn simplied chinese if you purely want to know chinese. But if you really want to understand chinese, I'd say go for traditional chinese hands down. And plus. You can always write simplified chinese when you know traditional chinese.:)0 votedMay 30, 20181
- Hi Sanghyuck Redundant/ redundancy usually means that she's got fired from the company. If I am understanding this correctly, your friend is travelling the world because she's got fired. (Which if that's the case, you should not be jealous of her). And since she has been made redundant, her travel costs would be borne by herself.0 votedMay 30, 20180
- If u are totally not familiar in Hong Kong food culture. Please don't say you have tried 點心(Diu sum) before since all Hong Kong people will know that u are telling lie. However, you can say that u have tried 蛋撻(egg tart)and 沙爹牛麵(satay beef noodles) instead. e.g 我食過沙爹牛麵同蛋撻，超好味。 we always said 食好西 (which means 食好的東西)when we want to find delicious food in HK .Therefore , if u want to ask your HK frd for mouth watering food. you can said . e.g 有無好西介紹 or 我想食好西。
1. 第一句文法已經錯, 如果要用IF開頭必須有下一句 ie. IF you want to eat good food in Hong Kong, you must ask some of the locals for recommendations.
*preposition應該用with不是in*
2. 點心= dim sum
3. 食好西係潮語 - 我覺得如果真係要學廣東話
首先學番正統先 ie. 有咩好嘢食

Which essentially shares the same written chinese as mandarin but in Hong Kong and Taiwan and Macau, we use traditional chinese, also known as 'cantonese: farn tai ji' (繁體字) whereas China uses simplified chinese 'cantonese: garn tai ji/ mandarin: jian ti zi' (簡體字)
Happy belated birthday to you btw!!

I am not a native english speaker but I am fluent in it. I guess language is something that's born within. It doesn't mean that you should stop reading novels or watching drama series because in order to really get a grasp of the language itself, blending in is always the best way, that is, to speak, to listen and to read.
From what you have written, you are pretty articulated when expressing your ideas, though it also appeared that you have some grammatical errors (ie. one of the reason(s); misuse of prepositions).
One thing for sure is you don't have to compare yourself to the native speakers because it's their mother tongue. It's okay if you are not 100% comfortable with english / not 100% confident about your english, because guess what, others learning mandarin or some other foreign languages might feel the same way too!
Just speak up always. No one's going to laugh at you for occasional grammatical mistakes and such! The most important thing is to be comfortable with the language and always enjoy it from within.
Hope that helps!
