Hello, I am half-Taiwanese too~!

My mother is Taiwanese, but my dad is from China. But, I like in the UK.
I sorta understand what you mean about not being able to study Taiwanese. I would love to be able to understand the language [dialect, really] properly.
I know Mandarin, so that's all good I guess.

Anyways, I would love to get to know you better.

i don't know how you would classify half-taiwanese, but i think of it as one of your parents are taiwanese, so i guess i am half-taiwanese. my mom is from taiwan, but my dad is from china.

i dislike it when people are either very taiwanese or very against taiwanese. since i'm inbetween, i can't go on either sides. My friends are either completely taiwanese or completely china-nese; so then one day, they were talking about how you can tell by looking at someone if they're taiwanese or chinese, and then one of them pointed to me and said "you look filipino." i have nothing against filipinos, but that comment just kind of made me go :crazy: .

i love listening to my mom speak taiwanese, cause that means she's talking about something she doesn't want me to know :bleh: . i can understand some taiwanese, but i can't speak it.

I was born in Taipei,Taiwan but my family moved to New York when I was 3 for job purposes. I know how to speak mandarin and a little taiwanese but I can only read and write a little. XD
BTW both my parents are Taiwanese.
