you will hear the work :sayo: in Korean. It is their most frequently used word phrase.
The Beijing language says nee-how to ask how are you doing. The Koreans say anyang-hi-sayo
Koreans answer telephones by saying yaba-sayo and the Chinese answer by saying way.
I am married to a Chinese wife; I served with Koreans during the Vietnam War.

It relies upon. in case you like common to earnings languages, then i might advise Korean and/or eastern. Korean is the least complicated to earnings to examine for me. i will already waiting them. i won't be able to understand something however. xD The grammar and honorific stuff is slightly harder (grammar = situation merchandise Verb, so as a exchange of i bypass to the save that is I the save bypass.. [or something like that]) and the honorific stuff is substantial. eastern is lots comparable to this. :] chinese language/Mandarin is lots harder with the aid of fact it particularly is a tonal language, on a similar time as human beings use tones to precise emotion, Mandarin (to boot as Cantonese) use tones to precise actual words.

I think it might be easier for you to distinguish between the two by listening more. Try searching for some source of Video on-line. May be from www.youtube.com. The more you listen, the more you know the difference.
