It was wrong but we only think and talk that way.
前面松哥老婆差点被车撞那一幕，他说请以华文(华语)和我老婆道歉。而因该是 Mandarin 而 不是 Chinese,因为 Chinese 指的是华人，华族。反而 Mandarin 指的是华文(华语)。 ... # Q/ N: w1 D' R2 ]os.tvboxnow.comkaijye1794 發表於 2012-10-27 01:01 AM

What's wrong with the word "Chinese"? The word "Chinese" has multiple implications, just like any other words like "English" , "German" and "French"~~~ When you are in a place where majority of the public speaks Cantonese (which is a local dialect of Chinese), asking a person to "Speak Chinese" means you want that person to speak in that local dialect, i.e. Cantonese in this case! 公仔箱論壇% i- t- z/ G- c0 W' N

I think your interpretation of "Chinese" being just a human race is far too superficial ~~~TVBNOW 含有熱門話題，最新最快電視，軟體，遊戲，電影，動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。+ L" L7 |) v1 R9 Q. } W t3 W8 W0 W
