		<description>Guys, dont be agressive on the topic. Relax. As a Chinese, I would like to say, if you are intersting in learning different languages, so there you go, Take some Chinese classes, and try to learn the words as much as you can, only for fun. no matter Chinese is a global language or not, we are all human being, if we can understand each other more by learning different languaage, why we have to concern about which language is the best or globalized.  </description>

		<description>hi Ems -- 1. i think the reason is just because china/ chinese &#039;people&#039; are simply not internationl/globalized enough, so they cant handle westernized accent. Think about it, in Europe a multi nation continent, most people can handle english in different accent and tell where they are from.. right? 2. you are right, the scene is not only not registered, when Laowhy talks to chinese, most of the time they (we)are in panic of &#039;dont talk to me i dont understand English (laowhy=english)&#039;, whatever you say wont make any difference than dog barking, unless you pull them out of that mood. 

hello fili- 1. no we dont understand lyrics automatically, we still need to look for lyrics, especially when encounter those kind like Singer Jay Chou, who i doubt hiding an egg in mouth while singing, (purposely disable lyrics to be understood.)--&gt; we look for lyrics.

2. -&gt; Encourage your freinds close their eyes while talking to you</description>

		<description>hi there

i am a graduate student from India and was quite fascinated by the discussion above. I have been very keen on learning Manadarin and did a two month course to understand the basic PINYIN (romanised mandarin). is it going to be worthwhile for me to do a one year chinese language certificate course from the university? and then i could probably brush it up by practicing it constantly</description>
