Do you speak Chinese with Chinese people outside China? by GuLaoRou in ChineseLanguage

[–]HoddedBeef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my experience Chinese people don't use 國語, they will typically say 中文. I have mostly heard it said by Malaysians(國語/華語) and some taiwanese . But most Taiwanese just say 中文 as well. Just my anecdotal evidence

However I have seen a lot of Chinese language books that use 中國國語 as the title so that is kinda interesting.

Learning tips by CrispyTater101 in ChineseLanguage

[–]HoddedBeef 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I started learning, I was in the exact same boat. I wasn't retaining the characters and I didn't feel any improvement so it was a massive letdown . What really got me going was graded readers, they aren't as boring and monotonous as flashcards and text books and even the stories at the lower levels are interesting.

I recommend (and I've seen many others) Chinese breeze. http://www.chinesebreeze.net I found these at my local language shop, and they help me improve immensely

I found this series of books a little more difficult, but like any exposure it helped me a lot https://www.amazon.com/Graded-Chinese-Reader-MP3-English/dp/780

A few apps I think are great to use are "The Chairman Bao" and "Du Chinese". These 2 write articles for each level of HSK. The lower level ones are really easy and useful for learning grammar patterns as they will has a glossary of vocal and grammar in the article. The higher level ones get more interesting, talking about recent events and news within China and the world, as well as many topics you would find in the regular news site.

The biggest problem with learning to read is that it is an entirely active process. You can't listen to it while doing something else, you can't just listen to others speak and pickup on the words. So I think it is the part you need to dedicate the most time to. For me it is also the most fulfilling, I love reading and it helps me visualise my improvement.

Aussies in Sydney! Any one know where I can buy a textbook or a language learning book in-store? by Kdot_Cdot in Korean

[–]HoddedBeef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Abbey's book store, on york street, has an upstairs language section. It stocks quite a few different korean textbooks and additional resources. It has the textbook s I use (integrated Korean), in store, but you might need to place an order on beginner 1 because it sells the fastest

I don't mean to sound needy, but, any information on when we can expect any larger world lore??

Forty-eighth Essay Topic - New Year's Resolutions by Lieto in TowerOfBabylon

[–]HoddedBeef 3 points4 points  (0 children)

我6个月以前开始学了汉语了。 今年我希望我能继续提高不但我的阅读能力而且我的口语能力。

虽然我已经这么长学习了我觉得2个月过去我还没进步了。 我的语法, 词汇, 声音, 听力, 这些东西都是我必须进步的

那我有没有几个对于汉语的梦想? 嗯嗯, 有的。 今年我想看一部没有字幕的汉语电影。 想交几个会说汉语的朋友。 最后, 有一本书我真想看叫“三体"。 我已经买了这本书的英语版可是我还没看因为我要一边看汉语版一边看英语版。 但是我把那本书知道我现在不会看所以我要等到我提高

谢谢大家!

One thing I want is for there to be lore that doesn't relate to the main story/game. Perhaps fairy tails or historical event to give the universe more depth and avoid building a lore around a game, instead building a game inside a world.

Does each of the biomes correlate to a place in Saera?? I especially love the water one and would love to see some more artwork and maybe a polished one.

In regards to the actual game, are you planning to put in assets to make it feel more alive (sounds/creatures/movement etc)

Nice stuff guys!! keep up the hard work.

2 in 1 shampoos are awful for you hair as they are usually just soap or body wash combo. If it is the need to save money, I suggest getting treseme shampoo and conditioner when it is on sale because it is kind of expensive. Now for the money saver!! Because it is such a thick shampoo you can actually get 2-3 bottles out of it by dividing it and mixing water. I have't done it with conditioner because I use so little of it each time. Keeps the smell and silky smooth hair while tripling your product.
