on Being multilingual:

Ok! I can speak English and Filipino and some phrases in Ilocano, Spanish, French and Chinese... having different friends all over the country is mind-buggling or should i say tongue-twisting. Likewise in order to connect with them language should be first taken into consideration and so i grabbed my "chinese for dummies book" and chat with my close chi peng-yu ,Wang Qiang.



Here's my challenge for him - he has to translate this in English.. coz i was impressed that those chinese characters works for him and for me to understand those will take me gazillions of years.

in chinese:
高Wang qiang! 你好吗? 我想要说感谢您。 并且我爱你朋友。 不要改变好。 直到我再看您。

OK TAKE A DEEP BREATHE AND READ IT!!!

in spanish:
¡hola qiang de Wang! ¿cómo es usted? apenas deseo decir le agradezco. y te quiero amigo. no cambie muy bien. hasta que le veo otra vez.

in french:
salut qiang de wang ! comment allez-vous ? je veux juste dire vous remercie. et je t'aime ami. ne changez pas bien. jusqu'à ce que je vous revoie.

in english:
?(answer this for me)
