I've written my third ... thing about my family in the last week, this apparently is a popular topic in language classes in the month of February.

你們好!我叫伍籣妮。這是我的照片、這是我家。我家有五個人、我爸爸、我媽媽、一個第第、一個妹妹、和我。我沒有哥哥姐姐。這是我爸爸,他叫Larry,他是工程師。我媽媽叫 Jacqui,她是法文學生。 我第第叫Bryce,他是工程師學生。我媽媽第第和我都是大學生。 這個女孩子是我妹妹,她叫Bridgette,她是高中學生。

I'm proud of myself. I mean, it wasn't hard, that's really basic Chinese, but holy crap that looks cool. Doesn't it? Doesn't it?

My teacher says that learning traditional characters will make reading simplified ones easy! Reading that makes me suspect this is not the case.

你好,愛伦!我的中文也不好。Technically, 我爸爸不是工程師,我第第不是大學生。But everything I said was sort or true...

-- yeah, sorry! I never bothered installing traditional. But I did learn traditional for the first year, and it's not a bad idea -- it's not that easy to read simplified if you've learned traditional (just easier than the other way around), but it makes learning them more heartening! :D

Hahaha, 在我的日文科,我们说,watashi wa ABC no bengoshi desu!可是,我们不是lawyers。。。
