[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP: my DC is also interested in studying in China next year. Already speaks decent Mandarin (simplified) and wants language immersion to really perfect their skills. They are concerned if they go to Taiwan the use of traditional characters will make them functionally illiterate, although they could still speak of course. Anyone have thoughts on if this is true, or how hard it would be to get the most out of language immersion in Taiwan if you don't know traditional characters? As a parent it hadn't even occurred to me to be concerned about spending time in China. I figured the Chinese government isn't concerned about college undergrads and the kids just use a VPN to get around the firewall. But maybe Taiwan is a safer bet.[/quote] Is Singapore an option?
