I am interested in the Oriental culture, language, etc... I have a friend who came to the US from China and she is the one who sparked my interest in the Far East. I know that China moving into the future at a rapid pace, so I think that learning Chinese would be very beneficial to me. On the other hand, I would like to work for Nintendo or Sony, peferably Nintendo, in Japan, so that means that I would have to learn Japanese. Could it be posible for me to learn both Chinese and Japanese without getting confused between them? I am personally leaning towards Chinese, considering a little more than one billion people in this world speak Chinese, and I would appreciate input from all people, but would appreciate it even more if I may have imput from a native English speaker with an American viewpoint. Thank You!
The Japanese are truly impressed when you know their language. The Chinese, not so. In Japan, you'll get far by knowing their language. In China, you're more likely to be grumbled at behind your back as if you are intruding and shouldn't have bothered.
