[quote=Anonymous]The District's Chinese-speaking immigrant community is tiny, and there are no clear boundaries between the DC and MoCo communities. Many of us schlep to Rockville on weekends for this and that (shopping at the Asian supermarkets, dim sum, heritage language school classes for kids housed in MoCo public schools, visiting friends who speak our dialects), particularly those of us who don't attend the evangelical Christian church in Chinatown. YY is irrelevant to us - we don't speak the textbook Chinese they teach, and can't speak to admins in any dialect. We look to MoCo for advanced Mandarin classes and visit older relatives in NYC, California, Hong Kong, Taiwan, on the Mainland etc. in the summers to provide immersion experiences to kids. [/quote]
