Grace, another thing you could explain us: in mandarin, is future and past in the same position as in romanic languages? Example: in portuguese (my language) as well as in english, future is in front of us and past is behind us. I know some languages place future and past both up and down. What about mandarin?

Considering that 以后 and 后面 share the same character, the same way as 以前 and 前面, I'd say time is portrayed just like most European languages. However, there is 下个 and 上个.

Hi, Ms. Grace. Pardon me, I actually have a question. I just found out your channel this week, and starting to learn Chinese Mandarin. I have plans of living either in HongKong or Taiwan. I know both use traditional characters, and that HK uses cantonese for speaking. I want to know if I end up living in HK, would learning traditional characters still useful knowing Mandarin is different from Cantonese? Would I still understand the HK characters same as in Taiwan? Thank youuuuuu for your response. 💚 Btw, I really really like your approach in teaching. Thank youuuuuu a lot. 💜

@kokolexx 4 жыл бұрын

Let me help answer you according to my knowledge. The answer is yes. Different pronunciation in Mandarin and Cantonese but the meaning of the characters is the same. There are minor difference of usage of some words and grammar but basically they are the same. And also learning hanzi especially traditional characters is not easy so you better start as soon as possible Hope it helps.

@kokolexx 4 жыл бұрын

I remember there is this story in a Japanese manga. There is a boy from Japan who wants to go to China to find his grandfather. But before coming to mainland China he must go to Hongkong first to find someone. And he can only speak Mandarin so when in Hongkong he cannot tell the taxi driver where is the address he wanted to go because the driver only speak Cantonese. But then he write down the address and the taxi driver immediately know the place.

Keats Lau Do you mean 才 is a simplified character? No, totally not. It's just the different form of 纔, but still recognized as a traditional character. Even in Taiwan, there's few people know this word because we never use it in our daily life at all. People learn this word from Traditional Chinese Literature classes, which teach us the articles written until the early 20th century.

Keats Lau 喔喔了解！我是以一般人的角度回應，沒有仔細研究過。但語言本來就會隨著人的使用產生變化，本來就該與時俱進，如果實際已很少人使用，就應該以實際情況為主，這個我想在任何語系、種類的語言都不例外，例如像牛津字典等字典每年都會增減收錄的字彙，除非是像拉丁語之類的死語（Dead Language），否則語言會隨著時間變化是很自然的事情。
