[quote=GUESTJIMMY,377661]haha, actually, Chinese language(Mandarin) is one of the easiest language to learn, esp. the spoken Mandarin. The Chinese verbs never change their forms no matter when the action takes place. No change of forms of nouns no matter whether it's singular or plural, feminine or masculine. In a word, each and every Chinese characters stays the same all the time while you are learning Chinese. Nothing like any other languages that you have to memorize all the different forms of words be it a noun, a verb, an adjective, a pronoun or whatever. So once you recognize a character and know the meaning assigned to it, it is there for you to recognize any time any where you come back to it, similar to the learning of traffic signs. Put it in another way, there is no socalled "grammar" in Chinese language but logical arrangement of the "original" words that carry the thoughts. Chinese language has been regarded difficult. It is maybe due to misunderstanding, lack of knowledge or its "apperance", or beliefs in stories told by those who have limited knowledge or experience in learning the language, most probably. However, every language has its uniqueness either in its formation or in its pronunciation, not to mention its cultural background. Chinese language(Mandarin) has some sounds that other languages do not have. This is true to almost all other languages. That's why we have to learn it unless you are living among Chinese people and pick up the language by yourself. Thanks for your patience reading my remarks whose purpose is to encourage those who are thinking of learning Chinese(Mandarin), seriously.[/quote]
