That Student Of Mandarin Language Feel
you understand all those words separately but not in that sentence
people asking you to “just say something in chinese, anything is fine!”
people asking you what’s their name in mandarin and you have to explain that you have no idea and then they get angry
having to remember all 7642 meanings of 点
you can read whole texts but get panic attacks when someone asks you to write
accidentally offending someone cuz u mispronounced the tone
accidentally saying 不有 instead of 没有 and your teacher looking at you like you just cursed their entire family three
having to explain that cantonese is a different language and that you do not, in fact, speak it
seeing a character with double/triple pronunciation and feeling like stabbing yourself
people asking you to translate other people’s badly done hanzi tattoos
