Strawberries513 Posted June 29, 2007 at 11:50 PM Report Posted June 29, 2007 at 11:50 PM I was wondering... is the Hokkien spoken in Taiwan the same thing as what they call "Taiwanese"?? Also, can anyone show me some online resources for learning the Taiwan version of Hokkien? Quote
Huang Jialuo Posted June 30, 2007 at 01:30 AM Report Posted June 30, 2007 at 01:30 AM I guess under your terms I am rather ignorant too, hehe... Hope the link below helps, I really don't know about this subject, even though my former chinese teacher was Taiwanese. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hokkien http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Min_Nan Wikipedia is really helpful. ;) Oh, and don't consider yourself ignorant for not knowing that. In any case, we are all ignorant in our own ways. I am ignorant in astro-physics, engineering, architecture, politics, history of art, Turkey's history, etc (a billion things). There is infinite things we don't know, compared to the little that we do. So... feel ignorant, but not as something bad, but as something you are constantly trying to redeem by learning. Quote
