I was forced to learn mandarin as a child coz my parents were English educated and they figured that it is important for me to be able to speak both languages well.Originally posted by sbst275:She cannot speak chinese is like to many in those that stay in my relative that kg area "Singaporeans many cannot speak chinese in reality har?"

We as Chinese better know how to speak. I mean even the Malays and Indians are picking up the language.
Good example is my hubby. He speaks fluent Mandarin as well, without any weird accents.
I know a few words in Tamil also...but all bad words leh...Originally posted by sbst275:Aiyah, it is like that

My parents too... Mum english educatedOriginally posted by elindra:Opposites attract???
For mine both are English educated but I think my dad is very conservative still.
In fact he worries more for my brother and me more than my mum
And he's also the naggier one
