sylveonzoroark Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 this event has been a splatfest so far poor yan han, he has beautiful skating skills, but he couldn't land his jumps properly someone said the ice is bad, which is absolutely shitty in such an important event Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinumi Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 1. what is jiayou?? i thought it was an equivalent of "fighting"/"hwaiting" but idol producer keeps subbin sentences like "let's jiayou" "i hope you can jiayou" and shit and idgi 2. how do honourifics work?? is it more similar to korean or japanese?? i know ge but thats literally it im very interested in honourifics in other languages tbh 3. how awful is chen's pronunciation in exo-m songs?? like just uncomfortable or downright unlistenable 4. do u know what phonemes are? if not: they're small units of sound in different languages; linguists have identified thousands of phonemes across the world and no single language contains all of them. native speakers of one language will find it difficult to pronounce or differentiate between phonemes of another language, e.g. japanese speakers can't tell apart the l & r sounds and german speakers struggle pronouncing the th sound im very interested in them and am curious if any phonemes exist in chinese but not in english (if any). and what is the best way u can describe their pronunciation?? 5. does chinese blend l & r sounds together the same way korean and japanese does?? 6. wats ur favourite chinese word or character just out of curiosity 7. wats the toughest part about learning the language??

sylveonzoroark Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 AAAAAHHHHH SHOMA WORRIED ME WITH HIS BOTCHED FIRST JUMP BUT HE CARRIED THROUGH WITH A SCORE OF 103 I'M SO PROUD on the other hand, the next best score is 88 by a guy whose skate WASN'T EVEN SHOWN BY NBC FUCK THEM gosh, this whole event has been so disappointing so far other than shoma so many popped jumps and falls... i'm convinced there's something wrong with the ice......
