[quote name='Metal Bunny' post='20688' date='Nov 22 2008, 11:02 PM']Mandarin is the official language of China and Taiwan, it is taught in all schools and almost everyone, except the most secluded villages who live in pure solitude, speaks it.
Cantonese is spoken by approx. 8 0 million people and the area from which it is indigenous is around Guangzhou and HongKong (which is actually Shangkang in Mandarin)
You will find however that Cantonese is spoken more in proportion than Mandarin due to free travel and immigration from Hongkong to the America and Europe, because it was part of Britain in the past. These days however, Wenzhounese (from the area of Shanghai and below, more like 400 km south of Shanghai (it's where my parents are from.. I do speak Wenzhounese.. can't write it though.. so sue me..) and Wenzhounese, has about 8 2 million speakers (HAH IN YO FACE ) and Mandarin speakers are becoming a majority, as they are the next wave of money-seeking immigrants
Yarrr.. Money![/quote]And there you have it. Lesson in Chinese dialects in about 10 seconds to 1 minute, depending on how fast you read and how many times you have to read it. xD -

How 'bout [b]The Most Addicted[/b]?
There's all those MDian slips in the addiction thread...xD -
D'oh...><;
...Don't you just love my MDian slips? xD -
lol
I can tell you right now that "What's a Mur?" is definitely on that list. I haven't had a chance to speak with Silken Minx since the day when she said that infamous quote, but I have a feeling that she's not liking this publicity. ^^; -
Bunny...wow...That was epic. xD

[quote name='Lady Amethyst' post='18946' date='Oct 27 2008, 03:12 AM']i haven't seen any Metal Bunnies in the sky yet though.. so i'm still sane.. right? [/quote]lol xDD
Yeah, that's a good sign. You're still sane...ish. xD
Oh...and I have a new addition:
-You get kicked out of MD Trivia because you know too much. =( -
A belated welcome to MagicDuel, Soltis. =)
I look forward to seeing you around some more in game. Such an interesting person, you are. Not to sound like a creepy stalker or anything...>>;
I love reading your little diary, by the way. ^^ -
Stop reading so fast, dst.
-
Maybe the Rabbit wasn't very conscience when he wrote/doodled that? I usually have some pretty neat handwriting, but not when I'm half asleep...which is probably why I can't read some of my class notes...>>;
-
lol :lol:
Those are epic. xD
You know you've been on MD too much when...
-You expect to hear a soft "beep" everytime after you speak and a "splat!" everytime someone steps on your foot.
-You haven't checked your mailbox in a long time before it doesn't "ping."
-You've developed an unreasonable fear of clowns with mallets and little girls with candles.
-You've seriously considered dressing up as Marind for Halloween.
-You've dressed up in a dark cloak, went out onto the streets, and asked random strangers if they would like to accept a box. -

[quote name='GlorDamar' post='18612' date='Oct 17 2008, 08:16 PM']I like those Yami. Nice work. Get yourself a scanner and I could probably put you to work.[/quote]Thanks Glor. I'm glad you like them. ^^
The scanners are rather...elusive....
I should go steal Minory's...>> -
Aw snap! I was gonna go trick-or-treating that night! D=
*dares anyone to make a comment about her being too old to get candy*
What time will it be? Maybe I can go poke around before I run out for the Yearly Candy Raid. >> -
*squeals~!* That fox is soooo cute, Blackthorn! *wants to snuggle it* x3
Since I couldn't get together the time to draw five avatars for the contest (grrr....school...*shakes fists* D< ), I'll just post the two that I have for kicks and giggles. Hope nobody minds. ^^

Sorry for the poor quality. I only have an outdated digital camera to work with, and Photoshop bit me. ><; -
lol...Buns gave me ears... :lol:
I need to show Minory that her Rabbit addiction has now been made famous on the forums. xD
@Glor: Naturally. How else is one to spell "Glor-ific?" Spell it any other way, and MS Word will mark it wrong. -
*crawls into a corner and cries*
...I wanna live in Europe...
