[identity profile] nemesis.livejournal.com 2008-09-17 08:32 am (UTC)(link)
THEY ARE FOR ME

EVERY TIME I PICK UP TAIWANESE TRANSLATED MANGA IT'S LIKE

'FUUUUCK SO COMPLICATED FUCK'

[identity profile] piecrumbs.livejournal.com 2008-09-17 08:35 am (UTC)(link)
I'M OKAY WITH SIMPLIFIED IN MANGA
BUT I'M READING "MODERN CHINESE LIT" AND I CAN'T ACTUALLY READ WHAT I'M READING orz

[identity profile] nemesis.livejournal.com 2008-09-17 08:51 am (UTC)(link)
That is-

A good point OTL HAHAHA if someone asked me to read ANYTHING in chinese, simplified or no, I think I'd die. And die harder if it was fan ti

Why not just go look for an equivalent online version if there is one?

Simplified is so confusiiiiiiing.

I got shown some simplified characters the other day and couldn't for the life of me how they went from the traditional character to its simplified counterpart.

D: Are they teaching simplified as they go, at least? Or do they just. expect you to know it?

[identity profile] piecrumbs.livejournal.com 2008-09-17 08:52 am (UTC)(link)
expect us to know it! "here we expect students to be able to read both simplified and traditional :Db find a dictionary"

NO ONE LIKES YOU, SIMPLIFIED CHARACTERS

[identity profile] robowolf.livejournal.com 2008-09-17 09:46 am (UTC)(link)
THEY ARE UGLY AND CONFUSING AND THEY SMELL LIKE STUPID

Granted, I only know like. Three characters outside of the kanji used in Japanese. But every time I see simplified characters, my reaction is pretty much this:

...find me a traditional online free version of 駱駝祥子 by 老舍 or read my homework to me :/

[identity profile] vianusmiho.livejournal.com 2008-09-18 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
...pie, hon.

You just type "駱駝祥子 by 老舍" in google, right? Then it gives you a looot of links to simplified versions of the entire book. All you need to do is click on the convenient "轉為繁體網頁" link on the right hand side and you get your traditional version.

Also I just kinda. woke up and have no idea what I'm typing HOPE THIS HELPS?

[identity profile] piecrumbs.livejournal.com 2008-09-18 02:16 am (UTC)(link)

I say there's a beauty in learning to write those god-awful traditional words. DON'T simplify them just ebcause it makes otehr people learn them easier. LIES. ALL LIES.

[identity profile] piecrumbs.livejournal.com 2008-09-17 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
I AGREE
simplified characters often loose the...origins of the character :/
