some flaws:
we do not unite,we like attack each other(in non-violent ways,espacially internet)
we do ...
I attribute some of the issues (like why Chinese appear distinct and isolated in the world) you mentioned to absence of English language use in public. Just imagine if every educated people are able to work and live using the world standard medium, would you still need to receive info from China alone? A typical instance is why the communist has banned almost all websites from TW/HK but much of the rest of the world free? He assume that few Chinese would read English (that's indeed true, Chinese use Youku instead of Youtube, baidu instead of Google, QQ instead of Skype, all in all, isolated with the rest of world)
That's especially a pain for science/tech people like me. Since I studied in China, when I need to deal with math/electronic related stuff, I had to relearn all those terms once again, totally waste of time (obviously the party never assume you would work with foreigners).
It's also about how to keep up with the cutting-edge tech, which is documented in English alone. I recall some ten years ago when D3D 8.0 was released along with the first implementation of programmable shaders, I was struggling to read the SDK documents. When I worked in China, I often heard someone arguing about documents, "is there Chinese version"? Well, without using English, you are undoubtedly kept away from the cutting-edge, waiting for Chinese edition?
Never be hesitate to use English, which doesn't belong to any regional culture (although it used to), it's the common language of highly educated/smart human being on the earth. |
