[quote=WEARYREFUGEE,37395]At the risk of being accused of heresy; I wonder if it would be of value for China to utilise a simple alphabet. Locally , over the years I have met several Orientals who speak limited Chinese but are illiterate. They would like to study more and improve their knowledge of the language but they have no desire to learn the characters. I have been tempted to publish popular Chinese poetry utilising the Roman alphabet. Would that provike outrage? I believe that many descendants of Chinese immigrants would be very interested in reading that form of publication. The problem is that China's strength in defending itself against western depravity has been the difficulty of learning the characters. Language difficulties are the last remnants of the psychological Great Wall. Should this wall be dismantled as China surrenders to Western Decadence or should it be raised to slow the tide ?[/quote]
