Well if you can communicate thanks to your mother tongue, I am really happy for you, because it is really not possible for us, French, to do so.

As I said, we can only guess a few words.
But I won't go as far as to call that "communication".
It seems like I'm one of a kind...

And if I were to use some French that we find in French novels will you still be able to understand it ?
I bet not.
Skype me and let's see what happens.

That's wrong.
The Chinese will, for sure, be able to read and write a few Japanese words (as the Kanji comes from Chinese caracters).
But he won't, in any case, be able to communicate with them !
The actual written part of Japanese, the kanji or Japanese characters, was the most borrowed rather than the Chinese spoken language and grammar - Something different from the romance languages who actually use some similar vocabulary.

What noodle said.


Too many people spend money they haven't earned, to buy things they don't want, to impress people they don't like.
