[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So the work of learning mandarin for 8 years and the tutors and the tears... Leads to NY? I know families who've chosen the school because of this China trip and the opportunity for their children to practice the language in the country. Damn. [/quote] Nobody's stopping you from going to China. I have no idea why anyone would want their child to learn Mandarin, though. Unless you're going to go live in China, it doesn't seem like a very useful language. It'll never be the language of business or anything.[/quote] Those of us who haven't gotten a spot at YY yet[b] love[/b][u] the way you think! Keep thinking it, and please keep saying this on playgrounds and at parties all over DC. The fewer people who see the value of Mandarin, the better for those of us who do. ;) Please PP, say more, lots more![/quote]
