  blame it on the way they teach cl, ask us memorise words just to score that pathetic 15 marks for han zhi, ask us memorise sentences for zhao ju...ask us memorise text for zhuo wen..
  
  n look at the way gahmen is promoting chinese in tele...just not long ago on channel 8 or u i tink, chinese proverbs final competition, those proverbs tested for pri school i dont even know lol..bet they memorise one
  
  

  Eh, i didn't read the past 4 pages, but looking at this.
  U blame ur teacher for poor teaching, so u forgot how to write UR chinese NAME.
  In this case, u wana blame the car manufacturer if u forgot to lock ur car one day ???

  My mom was very strict with my Chinese when I was young. She insisted I studied the 3-words-script. She gave me 100 words spelling every week. If i made 1 mistake out of the 100, I'm dead.
  
  Though now I've forgotten 50% of it.... but I still can write, read and speak Mandarin/Chinese w/o much problem.
  
  Perhaps, "family education" is equally important.

  whoa... that jia lat ah. Luckily mine not strict at all, she jiat kantang one. But my english no gd... Chinese good. Haha, opposite sia... wierd.

  I am sorry with your mental attitude towards Chinese. You have lost alot of interesting about Chinese literature, Chinese Phylosophy, Chinese Arts and Chinese Wisdom.

  Some of us were brought up in the way by parent telling us english is very important not chinese. Especially, when knowing english can earn a better decent living last time.
  
  You are right, without know those stated, you would not be able to really appreciate what their meaning, etc.
  
  Will hope things will improve. But are Chinese really so difficult these days?I don't know.
