I need to find the traditional Chinese characters for “Ruins of Whispers” for cover art for my band. Links would be great, or just the Chinese characters themselves. Thank you so much!

I grew up speaking Chinese but I pretty much forgot it now. I can't read characters, and there's no one around to speak Chinese to me, so I figured I can review by reading simple Chinese pinyin sentences. I studied Chinese pinyin a little when I was in elementary school, so I know about the tones and how x makes a sh sound and q makes a ch sound. Help greatly appreciated!

I've had 3 friends die since last April. I want to get the Chinese characters for heaven tattooed on my wrist, so it's not anybody specific but for losing people close to me in general. I do not want to end up getting the wrong symbol so if anybody can send me a link with pictures and make sure it's accurate that'd be great.

Ok I know this is sort of a dumb question but I'm just curious what other people think. I sort of want to learn Chinese, but I feel like I will just completely fail at pronouncing the words and sound really dumb. I feel like with an American accent, I'd sound really horrible and somewhat superficial trying to speak Chinese. I'm not viewing this as a reason to consider for whether or not I learn it by the way; I just want to know what people think about it Thanks

I'm interested in spending summer break in Beijing, China in order to learn teens Chinese. Does anyone know a good program that teaches reading, writing, and speaking?

I am going to Chinese Sunday school in UK on Sunday and I am 13 and it is my first time. I will be put in the bottom class as I don't know any mandarin. However I understand Cantonese so is mandarin similar?? Also, how shall I prepare for my first lesson? I don't want to look unprepared because I have been told that all the other pupils are 5 years old!! What shall I do on my first lesson? Thanks any advice will help

Although I often try to obey the "official" stroke orders, there are some Chinese characters in which I find it better and easier to write if I write them in my own orders instead of following the prescribed stroke orders. Am I making a mockery out of the Chinese language and culture by innovating my own stroke orders? Is following the correct order indispensable or just helpful?

:) I’m thinking of getting a tattoo saying one of those things thank you

I'm 16, and I really want to take Chinese. I don't have it at my school, but I was thinking of taking it outside of school. How much are Chinese classes usually, and is it really hard to learn?

I want a tattoo of one of these, but i can’t find any of them.

I've been learning Chinese, and I have learned two different words, that I believe mean roughly the same thing. In what situations do you use 可以? And what times do you use 能? Or are they interchangeable?

There's this boy on my bus who I really want to be friends with. There's only one problem...he doesn't understand English. So what I need to do is learn Chinese. Help please? Maybe some of you can give me basic phrases like "Good Morning" or "How are you?" "Our next class is over here" That type of stuff. Oh and if there's anything that you know that's related to school please tell me. By this I mean things that you might say to people in school.

I want to learn some survival Chinese so that I can communicate in Chinese when I go to China.

I plan to travel to China during China's National Day holiday. I have no knowledge of Chinese whatsoever and I want to learn travel Chinese. Any suggestions?

I need help translating this English phrase into Mandarin Chinese. I realize there are a plethora of online translators but not everything transcribes correctly. So I know there are both traditional and simplified ways of doing this. If someone could translate: "Love knows no boundaries" into both traditional and simplified Mandarin Chinese it would be very helpful! Also, if someone could supply the Chinese characters for this quote I would highly appreciate it! Please no jokers giving me a fake translation. Save my time and yours because I'll be double checking it as best I can with an online translator. Thanks!

I'm having trouble understanding this short Chinese sentence. I'm sure it says something about suffering or sad people. I would appreciate it if someone who speaks Chinese could translate this for me completely, since online translators are often wrong. Thanks for the help :) 痛苦让人深思
