I noticed people in mainland China don't put their names in Western way-first name before last name. That may be a bit weird, but I do think maybe that's what we should do for Chinese culture being respected. For long, we've been following western rules, especially the states. When we speak English, we always try to be a native speaker, using all foreign tones and expresions to show how good one's English is. But we connot be a foreigner after all, why not use our culture into English to let others know who we are and what we think. So I do think if we can share our culture via English, that would be better than we simply know others by English. China may have long way to improve, but they're proud of Chinese culture and never forget who they are, even if adopting western techs and thoughts. How about people in Taiwan? Can we stick to our culture with no fear? We can think sometimes! -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.112.215.132 ※ 編輯: ericbear 來自: 140.112.215.132 (09/28 12:46)
