    John, 你的中文水平看起来不错啊,试试这个,嘻嘻 :O “石室诗士施氏,嗜狮,誓食十狮。施氏时时适市视狮。十时,适十狮适市。是时,适施氏适市。氏视是十狮,恃矢势,使是十狮逝世。氏拾是十狮尸,适石室。石室湿,氏使侍拭石室。石室拭,氏始试食是十狮。食时,始识是十狮,实十石狮尸。试释是事。”

    貌似是当初有人说中文要走向国际化,呼吁取消象形的汉字,而全部用拼音表示。有很多人反对,其中一个人写了这么一篇文章,告诉大家取消汉字的主意简直就是扯淡~~

    @John, 可以理解,中国的大城市现在越来越不适合外国人学习中文了,太多人习惯和外国人用英语交流了...我觉得如果要是你真的想练习,跟中国人说话时,如果他说英语,就立刻打断他吧,哈哈

    I have to hand it to you Chinese (and its similar to some other Asian countries) regarding your complicated but beautiful language How is it possible for a foreigner to learn Chinese characters at a late age (as myself at 58). It is tough enough to learn pin yin. I have ordered at a restaurant and paid the bill when the caidan showed pictures. So many sizes and shapes and various meanings for the same character.

    Hahaha, Steven, and I have to hand it back to you ... you are very good ...

    Man is never too old to learn anything, Steven. Jiayou! I'd like to hand to Japanese. though their language is originated from ancient Chinese, we have learnt back so many useful abstract nouns and word-building methods from them during the late 19th century to the beginning of the 20th, and we are going on borrow them now. This is crucial to the early development of nature science and social science in China.
