hi,
long time fan, here.
So, as I understand it, simplified standard Mandarin is a Communist, revolutionary dialectic, no? -Intended to unify all the dialectics?
So, why isn’t it more prevalant? I am so tired of people who refuse to communicate with me, and cannot but speak to me as if I grew up in their hometown with them. Sometimes they’ll just mumble or slur whatever they have to say and expect me to understand, sometimes they will just immediately skip to ‘ting bu dong’.
