Okay, I like simplified, too.

I like traditional better because that's what I learnt. And I can only read simplified. >.o Can't type it out though.

I can write traditional, but I can never write simplified. They're...hard. :/ For me. I know. I'm weird. xp

Not weird. I don't know whether your case is the same as mine because I was taught and was surrounded by traditional styles all my life. I can't read or write simplified either; some of their characters look like they're from a foreign language to me.

I see. O__o;
Sometimes people type simplified chinese, but all I can see are codes and numbers though.

And yeah. Simplified Chinese looks sort of like a foreign language, too. o-o;

I prefered the traditional Chinese, mostly because that's the one i learnt when i went to mandarin school when i was young... sweatdrop

Even though yah, it's much harder, but I believe it's a sense of culture and brings us back to the traditional roots of China. Each individual Chinese character has a story behind it, reason why that character looked that way. Simplifying them just loses that special something in the words.

Totally agree with you! smile

I agree as well. Unfortunately most of my friends only know simplified chinese. crying

i prefer traditional, its the one i learn and i think it loooks nicer aswell. If you know the traditional characters you pretty much know how to read simplified aswell.

 

[K i m m e h]

Simplified, definetely. But I'm still now good at Chinese. whee But I'll agree, some of those traditional characters looks much spiffier than the newer ones. 4laugh  

[[Bab! Co.]]

Simplified chinese because I understand it and I don't know traditional sweatdrop ..

Hmm,,,I'd have to say traditional.I was born in Hong Kong and I 'm just use to traditional. I don't know how to write it but I know how to read some of it. I moved to Florida when I just turned 6.How was I suppose to learn anything? In kindergarden they just taught us english!!!
