I am deciding whether to take Chinese or Japanese for my third language. Which would be more beneficial to me, and which would be more difficult to learn? What are other pro's and con's I should think about?

No offense intended people. I'm interested to know. I would say that I am curious, but with four of our five countries speaking other than American English: Curious as inquiring, inquisitive or questioning, not odd, peculiar, queer, strange or weird.

Because there's no way to represent a nobasu in kanji, the three syllables of ma, a and ku will be fine. Japanese pros please give me 2 or 3 kanji representing these sounds as I'm having trouble coming up with a good combo.
I thought ma- pure and aku-evil was good, but my co-workers in Japan disagree...

Animals create sounds and use body language to communicate, and I am sure very early man did the same. At what point does this method of communication actually become language? Is it when a noun and verb are strung together for the first time?

I'm not a native speaker of English, and I've learnt that both expressions are totally interchangeable, but I've seen that when people want to be more emphatic, they use "nothing", rather than "not...anything", or "nowhere" rather than "not...anywhere", or "nobody", rather than "not...anybody", etc. Is that true?

And also, is "She's not married" more emphatic than "She isn't married"? Or are those just my assumptions?

Look at this message.."Reason of Violation:Not in English/Not Comprehensible "

I just answered a question in Filipino from a Filipino who is from the Philippines and under the category.Travel>Asia Pacific>Philippines.

What's wrong with that? Are we not allowed to talk our native language here? How come they have yahoo.com.ph, yahoo.com.ch, etc, if they dont want to recognize other language?

How come they also use non English words such as karate, kung fu, yoga, rabii, etc, Theyre not English either...
