中文對他們來說幾乎沒有文法啊！沒有時態變化，沒有詞性，詞句順序錯了只是聽起來覺得怪怪的但是還是能夠理解，所以一大堆人學中文六個月大概就能夠開口說了。

[@samchang9798]

​​@@Fecl4雖然沒有詞性但我們會直接換一個詞 像是act action active activate react 對他們來說字首字尾加上去可以大概推斷意思但換成中文就是 動/演 動作 活潑/積極 啟動 反應/應答 他們應該會更難記 尤其是在學寫的時候 他們應該很頭痛

[@Owjdnskoakansbskk]

I spoke Mandarin exclusively in Taiwan but it didn't stop a lot of people in Taipei from speaking English to me even though I didn't want to or have to. My accent and pronunciation was native, they just wanted to practice. But if I let them practice all the time my Mandarin would never improve and I'd be stuck in a country that is not an English speaking country trying to get by without any Chinese language skill, which is fine for temporary residents but bad for long term and permanent residents. It's also a literal requirement if you want citizenship. But so many locals were so pushy about speaking English that I eventually gave up and left. It's far too frustrating and not worth the effort. It also just really sucks to always feel like an outsider. Language is more than just a communication tool, it's a gateway into a culture, and by blocking out a demographic by speaking a different language to them only, it makes them feel ostracized, like they don't belong and never will. Maybe that's the truth though... Another issue that pops up all the time is when a local uses a "foreign friend" to practice English and after a while their Chinese just gets worse because their new English speaking friends only speaks English with them. That's how we got here where people ask 你為什麼要學中文？and 你的中文怎麼這麼好？ If Taiwanese people could be like Americans or even Japanese, they'd encourage us to speak their language instead of trying to constantly make us speak English. A lot of "foreigners" aren't even native English speakers!
