tumblr: on languages

Best way to hit on me involves language knowledge 😂

Chinese languages: We can MOSTLY agree that this symbol means this, but NONE OF US CAN AGREE HOW TO READ IT.

Mandarin: I’m the ‘official’ dialect.

Cantonese: I can say ‘drop and die in the street’ in three syllables and ‘I fucked your decrepit mother’ in four.
