The art of study Chinese is hard; to
understand this subject to have to be able to connect sounds to characters and
those characters to the English meaning. That jump
from words on a piece of paper to word your teacher is saying to you.
To write “the spring festival is
china’s most important holiday” you would write “春节是中国最重要的节日。” now the sounds are “chun jie shi zhong gou zui
zhong yao de jie ri”. Sounds pretty crazy right? Well when you look at their grammar Chinese
write in a very different way.
They always put the time first when
writing or saying a sentence; if there isn’t a time then you go subject. So an example would be “ma ming writes Chinese’s
characters very well.” “马明写汉字写得很好.”
The sounds for this are “ma ming xi han zi xi de hen hao.” See ma ming is a
name so he is the subject next it says he writes characters, so action final it
says very well; Describing how he writes these characters.
This language has two ways of
writing it both in a simple or traditional from. So for me to write my name in the simple from
is 冯凯蒂。While
in the traditional from it would be more strokes. Traditional is more for a
formal occasion, than normal life so it could be the learned writing of the Chinese
you may say.
