What Are Good Reasons To Learn Chinese Language For Reasons Other Than Financial Or Cultural?

by admin on December 13, 2009

For example, why would a wealthy person want to learn Chinese if he/she was not too interested in the philosophically/religious tradition of China (culture) and did not necessarily feel any career need to do so? (say they’re wealthy from “old money” and multi-millionaire)

- if you want to marry a Chinese woman or man, it would be nice to know their language
- if you enjoy learning new languages and think of it as a challenge as Chinese is one of the hardest languages to learn, along with Japanese and Korean too
- if you are white, and you can speak Spanish…nobody would think you are special, but if you are white and you speak Chinese, you will instantly be a hit with many people because they will think you are super smart

No good reason.
Look in the real world
Decode this lyrics “You’ll see ”
“Wonderful world”
Not a universal language.
Widely spoken among own community.
Tribe of different community has their own kitchen’s dialect with ghostly and deadly words from the graveyards of own ancestor’s.
At first thought it was the wrong choice missing it out.
With time knew it was right to stay away from it in time.
Since it never even advance nor move an inch but moving backward to the twilight zone in time.
Only science and mathematics advance in time.
Luke 21.30-36
Luke 9.25,55-56,60
Luke 24.44-45,47-48
Genesis 11.1,3-9
Revelation 22.13-17
Luke 6.39-40,41-45,46-49
What do you think?

Both dialects of Chinese, if you can call them that as I understand that they are two separate languages, are the most widely spoken languages in the world. 1 billion or so people in the world are Chinese, Chinatowns exist all over the world, and well, why not? Both languages seem really unique.

Quite simply put, Chinese is the new Spanish. Like Spanish has become a second language in the United States, the next up and coming language is rapidly becoming Chinese and very wealthy folks like to keep abreast of these things.

Maybe to just know the language when the visit China. I personally do not feel the need to learn Chinese.
