I speak both Chinese and English.
But on this forum, I don't think you can find people who understand Chinese very often. If you really need help, try to ask your question in English. I believe that people would try to help, and the answers shouldn't be too difficult to understand.

As an "english only" person who only speaks a little spanish, I am very sympathetic any other national's attempt in speaking "my" language. In my response to the chinese(?) posting--"huh"--I was really poking a little fun at myself for not being able to understand. Please ask your questions in the best english that you can, and most of use "english speakers" will try to answer as best we can. A least, we all speak the interantional musical language--with varying interpretations, tone qualities, instrument brands, mouthpieces, ligatures and reeds, all of which we love to argue about in any country. Right????

Sometimes our American sense of humour is also difficult to understand...

Hi, Zhaoyuan
Please, do not worry if your English is not well. If the words are understandable, you will get answers. Most English users will try to make their answers easy to understand.

Well...since Chinese is the most commonly spoken langauge in the world, I think you can post it in Chinese if you want. Just dont' expect too many responses. Or, even better, post it in both english and chinese.
You should try to improve your english. It might be useful if you decide to visit the US or Canada or something.

You should try & improve your Cantonese and Mandarin. It might be useful if you decide to visit Hong Kong, Shanghai, Beijing, or Taiwan someday ...

Z: your english is pretty good.
There are many people in english speaking country that don't speak nor write english very well.
Just do the best you can, and someone will try and give you the information that you are looking for.

"Nin Hao, pengyou!"
How are you, friend?
"Zai jerli, ren hui zhang Putonghua hen xiao."
Here, very few people speak Chinese.
(something wrong in grammer, it should be:
Zai jerli, hen xiao ren hui zhang Putonghua.
"Dan sher, ni de Yingyu tai haole."
But, your English is pretty good.
(I'm a native Chinese speaker. This post was a bit confusing to me.
Due to the language structure, you don't link anything together,
such as you don't do jerli, Putonghua. Instead, they should sound
like "jer li" and "pu tong hua".)

Hey Jack...how would you feel about maybe translating for people who really need you to? I'm sure they'd appreciate it...although it would probably be a lot of time for you...
just a suggestion.
