29:00 <Sinn> aiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiya
29:00 <KorgBoy> glenn..right right
30:00 <KorgBoy> yah..its just the way they construct it  :( 
30:00 <KorgBoy> more like a culture thing or something like that... weird
30:00 <Glenn> ...they do?
31:00 <KorgBoy> yah ... it's weird.   and when they say 'not' something ..they often put that  'buU' word at the front
31:00 <Glenn> ...mmmmm... I don't recall anyone asking me that...
31:00 <Glenn> ...bu shi...
31:00 <KorgBoy> glenn ..they can also say 'ni haoW mah' ?
31:00 <KorgBoy> like that
31:00 <Glenn> ...can...
31:00 <KorgBoy> i beg your pardon glenn? !!!!!
31:00 <KorgBoy> <Glenn> ...bu shi...
32:00 <Glenn> = no
32:00 <KorgBoy> no swearing on the chan please
32:00 <KorgBoy> hahahahahahaha
32:00 <Sinn> :
32:00 <KorgBoy> i was only kidding jah hahahaha
32:00 <Glenn> ...but you were close...
32:00 <KorgBoy> hahahaha
32:00 <Glenn> Where you from then KorgBoy?
33:00 <KorgBoy> glenn .. from australia .. my folks were originally from china ..guangzhou part..near hk. then they moved to hk when they were very young.
34:00 <Glenn> Ok... I see... so ni shuo guang dong hua ma?
34:00 <KorgBoy> because the communist pigs were hunting down folks .. so folks had to flee to hk
35:00 <KorgBoy> hai ar..gnor sik guang doong waH ar :)
35:00 <KorgBoy> glenn..do you speak cantonese too a bit ? ! :)
35:00 <Glenn> ...PK?
35:00 <KorgBoy> i would love to learn the mandarin !! sounds really elegant ..well in my mind that is hehe
36:00 <KorgBoy> glenn .. what is pk ?
36:00 <Glenn> No... just a couple of greets... and the obligatory swears..
36:00 <KorgBoy> glenn hahahahahha!!!! cools!
36:00 <Glenn> ...mmmmm... you don't speak Cant either then...
36:00 <KorgBoy> glenn .. yah..i can speak cantonese ..but unfortunately can't write chinese :(
37:00 <Glenn> ....wot ? ? ?
37:00 <First_love> glenn
37:00 <First_love> hows your weekend sweetie?
37:00 <KorgBoy> because i was raised in australia and my folks didn't have enough time to teach me to write it.. and there were no chinese writing schools here 
37:00 <Glenn> HongKong characters can get a bit busy... but the mainland ones aren't too bad.
38:00 <Glenn> I taught myself to write from books...
38:00 <KorgBoy> glenn ..oh i see! :) that's really cool how you can speak some and write it too. quite excellent really
39:00 <KorgBoy> glenn ..what motivated you to learn mandarin ? :) !
39:00 <KorgBoy> nice effort that's what i can say
40:00 <Glenn> ....to find out what the HongKong stoodents were talking about in my classes...
40:00 <KorgBoy> hahahahha..that's excellent!
40:00 <KorgBoy> thats cool !
41:00 <Glenn> After six months of study... still couldn't understand a word they were saying...
42:00 <Glenn> ...being a naturally blue-eyed Aussie, didn't know that they were speaking Cantonese and I was learning Mnadarin... 
42:00 <Glenn> Us Aussies think Chinese is Chinese... 
42:00 <KorgBoy> i see! yah.. i think a course is necessary maybe for cantonese .. but i reckon you'd pick things up very very well after a year or 2 ... i need a mandarin course! :(
44:00 sanfuji ([email protected]) has joined #hongkong
44:00 <KorgBoy> glenn ..yah ..true ! even between mandarin and canto writing... the words are the same and all that..but there can be slight differences in some constructions of sentences and phrases...slight differences. but in general each folk get the drift ..or just understand 
44:00 <sanfuji> heck canto and mando are pretty different
