English, obviously.

Cantonse and Mandarin.

Understand a bit of Taishanese but not well enought to speak full sentences… (mostly curse words xD). Parents never spoke to me in Taishanese.

Can read basic Chinese characters (simplified… looking at traditional gives me headaches)… I can type with Pinyin and Jyutping… can’t write… (its like you know what a picture looks like but hard to draw that picture by hand… know what I mean?)

I went to school in China till 2nd grade…

I remember teachers had a meter stick and would slap your hand with it as “discipline” and my mom APRROVES OF IT… 💀

They would throw chalk at you if you looked like you weren’t paying attention… (sometimes they missed and hit another kid xD)

They played the stupid National Anthem just like the US does.

They make you memorize whole short story and recite it and make you stay late afterschool if and make you recite it… and I remember sometimes they had another kid standing behind the teacher and held the book open so the other kid being quizzed on it can secretly cheat off of it lmfao…

I can probably survive in Mainland China, HK, Taiwan, as a tourist, without needing translation… (I’m gonna sound like a 2nd grader tho lol)

Honestly I rather just forget those languages and become monolingual if it means not have to deal with the cultural baggage…

为什么华人父母这么恶？烦的要死。。。😭
