I love Chinese, it's far more flexible than English. But, slackers like me are often too lazy to type Chinese. Plus, the area I used to live in has almost no Chinese. The only way I can survive is to speak and write in English. And, ususally I don't like to speak any foreign language in front of people, because sometimes they feel uneased from such isolations.

Try to write a short novel in English. It helps a lot.

Buddy, I know exactly what you feel. In my school, my cousins and I are the only people who can speak Chinese. We used to talk in Chinese when we are in school, even sometimes I feel don't like it. And people always try to figure out what we said, and sometime, they ask us what we said, and I used to tell them too. Well, that's lot of trouble, but it's cool to talk in Chinese sometime, because no one else could speak your language.

I understand, and I am in a worse situation. Everyone around me speak Cantonese!? And of course, someone from Beijing (i.e. me) found it a pain in the ass, because you know they are talking something similar, but you have no way of figuring it out...

Unlike you, I am extremely concerned about my ethical identity. I speak Chinese whenever I can (unless talking to native English speakers of course), and my parents are quite frustrated that they cannot practice English at home (I am still in high school). But I don't want to live a life that is no different from others. I am Chinese, and I think the Chinese way. And the only thing I cannot tolerate is to be completely assimilated and lose my identity. As a result...

I am in Scarborough/Toronto, and I wish to find some friends here, hehe.

Nice to meet everyone!!

:D Nice to meet u too. btw,im in north york^^.
we probably have differnt opinions. If u are in this society, or if u consider urself one of the members, there is nothing wrong of speaking english.and i don't think we will lose our identities just because we do not always speak in chinese.

I lived in Toronto last year. there's tooooooooooo much Cantonese in Toronto!!!!!!!!!!! I just HATE it!
think about it, there was about 20 Chinese in my class (about 3/5). only about 8 people can understand Mandarin and only 7 can read and rite Chinese. and that's in North York, from what I heard Scarborough's situation is worse...

in Hamilton there's much more people speaks Mandarin than in Toronto. and there's so much people come from BeiJing!!
Darn it! why didn't I come to Hamilton at the first place?

这个人很纠结,不知道签名写什么好

There're many Chinese speakers around me, but there're all my family member, and most of they can't speak English, that's why I have to speak Chinese with them. But I didn't often meet them(except my parents), and most the time I spend, is in my school, and I told you that there're some other Chinese in my school, and they all burned in America, so that you can't speak Chinese. And that's why I have to learn to speak English on my own, I have no Chinese helper. But well.. I got many American friends, and they help me well.

Well, I could speak both Cantonese and Mandarin pretty well, but ah.. in my school, nobody can understand these two Chinese languages except my three cousins and a new Chinese student(I just talked to him twice in 3 months).

I'm come from Hefei, but my mom's family are all Cantonese. My family members in the United States are all speak Cantonese.But I can't,too poor.Whan I was a child, my grandparents are used to ask me to learn Cantonese. But I never did that, because I really don't like this kind of language. I think Madarin is sounds more pretty.I came here, I found some of my cousins who were born in here, they only can speak Cantonese and English, they even cannot speak or understand any Mandarin!

So, what is wrong with Cantonese?
I grow up with it and it is absolutly fine. My Mandarin is bad but I use Mandarin if I need to comunicate with someone who speaks it. (Hack! I even try to use Japanese when speaking with Japanese friends, tried but not very successfull) I think learning Cantonese and Mandarin is not big deal, just try to use it and it will be fine. If you are in a place that people speaks X, it is appropricate to learn and speak X.

I don't like Cantonese.
I mean the language, not the people.
It's not sounds good.
