Iโm impressed they spelled tomorrow right.
Tbh I'm impressed they wrote any of it. I imagine they've never written anything ij the latin alphabet before so they might have copied the letters photographically
The average person in China is plenty familiar with the Latin alphabet, and English is a required subject in most schools.
I was born in PRC.
In this timeline, I immigrated to the US, and therefore English is easy to me. And I haven't spoken Mandarin in over 10 years. And barely used Cantonese when at home.
Imagine the alternate timeline where I'm still in China. Then my English skills might be as bad as my current spanish skills (Terrible)
(Well, to be fair, I didn't care about spanish because it isn't a lingua franca of the world)
Really curious about that timeline. ๐ค
Wow, didn't realize this
Already better than so many reddit posters. Quick! Ask a Chinese nurse to pluralize 'traffic' and 'email' and see if she puts an S on either. I'm betting no, as she seems on top of things.
Hah! It's 'traffeaux' and 'emu'. Next question!
