I'm actually learning simiplified chinese and when I found out that traditional is used more, I was like O___O
Now I wanna learn both traditional and simplified.

什么是我的错? What's wrong with me?

我只想微笑和大笑 I want to smile and laugh

Does it make sense? lol


hmm a little correction will do.smile.gif

What's wrong with me? - 我错在哪里了?

the second phrase is a bit weird..don't understand.lol.sry.

i use simplified chinese more but i can understand both and differentiate.most people in Singapore use simplified though...Taiwan and Hong Kong are the only 2 countries i know that uses traditional chinese most of the time(or rather all of the time.xD)

I only know voluntary work = "yee gong"
(or you can say "jo yee gong" which means to do voluntary work.)

I know like sexual assault HAHAHA I don't think that's very helpful.
Estate is...."chaan" ? :X I have no idea.


So sad I know canto...but I don't know canto.

Voluntary work is "Yee Gong"..romanization is the same as Chinese just that the tone is different. Yee3 Gong1.

Sexual assault is Seng3 Sou1 Yiu2.

Estate is Dei3 Can2.

hope i helped.^^

How do you say "I'm sorry that I can't go" when the person already knows?

A lot of worries and a lot of hate are also long. Today morning I have beer, today morning I will get drunk. If tomorrow's worries come then it is tomorrow's worries.

It basically means "Live in the moment."

Remember!

Have you already arrived back at England?, do u have a present that somebody ask u to pass on to me, hahaha. Ah, thats right september the 3rd u will be going through the best challenge before u get into society, are you ready yet?, I was planning to tell you face to face, but unfortunately I have already left worcester. regardless where I am, I just want to tell you one thing: next year be careful, because if your GCSE exam is not good, then it might affect your whole life. remember!! This time for my exam I got 1 A+, 2 C, 3 D and 3 E's. I hope your exam results will be better than mine, do ur best!

Right now im enrolled at city college of norwich, we start on the 3rd. The subject I enrolled in is 1st Diploma retail. I wonder what you want to study nxt yr in college? Ah, thats right I recommend you go do the exam for ESOL. If you can sucessfully get it, then, when you apply for college it will be easier, it will also be easier when you apply for permanent resident in england or extended stay. Good luck. I hope we can see each other in the near future.

umm i wasn't sure about some stuff. like ESOL since i dunno wat that is hope u know wat i mean.. and i wasn't sure about the extended stay part but im sure u kno wat shes talkin about. : D
