asian languages look like they'd take an eternity to write out on paper. latin languages have very simple nice letters that take no time at all
@Nudhul they have slanty eyes because they are so tired after writing out all those funny letters
@BigTony i forgot the name for it but each character is a syllable and thats what their written language is composed of. alphabets are broken down a step further with letters used to assemble syllables
Chinese uses radicals in a certain pattern to form certain characters so you look it up in a dictionary based on the order of the radicals from what people told me
They then remove certain pieces of characters but keep other pieces to combine characters to form other characters
At least that is what people have told me
@shortstories @BigTony chinese is also tonal. how you pronounce something affects its meaning.
makes singing a tad complicated

Korean is not tonal except maybe things like you change the tone because you are asking a question which we also do in English sometimes
The tone does not change one word to another word like in Chinese
Korean is very easy to learn
And you do not need to learn pictograms for every sentence like in Japanese
