At present, I am studying English in the
University of Calgary. When I was in middle school, I begun to study English. I
have learned English for 12 years so far, but my English isn’t so good. If you
ask me which other language you’d like to learn besides English, maybe
actually, I have no idea. In contrast to Chinese, English belong to western
language system which is very different from eastern language system. Maybe the
basic reason of causing the differences is the different culture. Therefore, if
I have a chance, I probably will learn Korean. Why? Because my wife and I have
decided we are going to travel to Korea in next year if we have spare time in
common. Nowadays, I understand the Korea a little, so if I want to learn
Korean, l will know the Korea culture firstly. Maybe, I will learn Korean more
easily than English. I think language is a part of culture and the culture
makes the language meaningful. I suggest if you want to learn Chinese, you must
understand the Chinese culture.
I'm going to have a trip to Korea this year , may be we can go there together!
ReplyDeleteI think so too. We can't learn languages without culture.

ReplyDeleteI think you have enough with Chinese, I know that have a lot of dialects and it's difficult.
ReplyDeleteI've traveled to Korea a couple of times, but I only learned a few basic phrases. Fortunately, many people there speak English, especially in Seoul.
