ORIGINAL: WhoreMods So which classic noir detective thrillers did your ex write, then? It would be interesting if my ex could write anything ha! He was definitely not a reader. Neither a writer. Ironically, fortunately we met at work, I doubt I would have ever been drawn to him if it was online. His writing is terrible. I mean, verbally, he speaks very well. It's abit strange in my country because of all the different mother tongue that different types of Chinese people speak. In past, even Chinese couldn't communicate with each other as we all spoke different languages. I mean, neither of my grandparents, mom and dad side could speak Mandarin, which is the national language of China now. And both my parents speak a different mother tongue. When I go to my grandparents, on each side, it's two whole different languages they are speaking. So technically I know 4 languages, but it doesn't count, since 3 of them are chinese languages ha. In UK, it would be depending on your state of origin. But in Singapore, it's fully reliant on what Chinese ethnic group you are from and whether did you grow up at home speaking those languages. The accent differs. Like if someone speaks Cantonese at home, their English accent will be completely different from someone who speaks Hakka at home. And verbally, both me and him have the precise same accent, which was pretty cool, like we speak the same type of English. But expressing himself in writing, is terrible.
