Harro harro ar! razz
Actually my first language is English but I was brought up in a Cantonese/Shanghainese family. I can hardly speak the language (Shanghainese is my strongest) but I can understand the basics without too much problem. My Mandarin has been improving over the last little bit... of course as a direct result of the tutolage of my dear girlfriend who's Taiwanese. biggrin

I understand a little of Cantonese/Hokkien. My marks in Chinese are average-bad, and my pronounciation is weird when I'm nervous. razz

I got 100% in my Chinese school exam before. If I took it again I probably wouldn't get as much.
