    I can speak English, Cantonese, and Ebonics fluently. But most importantly I speak the international language of basketball -worship .

    is fukien the same thing as taiwanese?
    i dunno, i just keep hearing some people tlak about kukien
    and then some people talk about taiwanese
    and never crossed paths that they could be the same thing

    some places dont have middle school
    therefore it's like 6 years of elemetry
    and 6 years of high school
    or like in Hong Kong
    you can take Form 1 through Form 4 (there version of high school)
    and Form 5 & 6 are optional (it is like the first two years of college)


    and I agree, Toisan is not worth learning
    I know it, and it doesn't come in handy in my life, except to talk to my family
    because anyone now a days who knows Toisan will most likely also know cantonese
