据美国《世界日报》引述BBC新闻网站报道，西方国家学中文的人和开办中文课程的大学日益增多，在五年内发展到三千万人，专家认为，中文不但有益于学生未来的事业，而且有可能取代英语，成为世界语言。

在英国伦敦，上海出生的律师徐启兰(音译，Kylan Xu Lucas)帮助安排小学生学中文，负责协调全市12个学校的中文课。她说，家长送孩子学中文是从长计议，“他们认为再过10到20年，到子女成人时，中国将比现在更强大，届时中文将成为非常有用的工具”。

在伦敦学习中文的非华裔学生，其家长多在金融界工作，徐小姐说：“中国的金融界非常大，这对学生的父母有影响，父母希望子女多才多艺，学好中文使下一代工作时具有优势。”

人们相信中国不是竞争对手，而是能提供生意新机会，无论在英国还是美国，学中文的人数与日俱增。1998年的中文学生为六千人，而今高达五万。

美国外语教学理事会的洛维乔(Brett Lovejoy)说：“学生愿上中文课，家长来问中文课，连社区也来问。人们都知道，学中文将来好找工作，能有好收入。”

在英国，把中文作为主课学习的大学生，2005年比2002年增加一倍，其他西方国家在学中文上也同样不甘落后。

研究语言流行和变化的柯里斯塔(David Crystal)教授说，学中文人数的爆炸式增长，对国内人口也将产生影响。他说：“在现代社会，当文化发生变化时，尤其像英美和澳洲这样的国家，就会越来越具有多元文化和多种族的特点，跟随移民一起进入这个社会的语言，就成为社会文化的一部分，日益重要。”

柯里斯塔教授说：“伦敦是世界的语言中心之一，英语作为唯一语言的现象正在迅速改变，而中文是推动改变的重要因素之一。过去靠英语在世界上打天下的人们，现在不得不与多语种的人竞争。”

多数人分析，中文还不至于取代英文的“世界语言”地位，但柯里斯塔教授认为，语言的地位有赖于这一语言群体的力量，主要是其经济实力，一千年以来的拉丁语时代但仅一百年就变了样，“还是金钱发挥决定性作用，目前的语言金钱是美元，但不会永远如此”。

To Skipy, you need to learn Chinese for first hand information!

The standing list of univeristies means little to the booming China!

Chinese manufacturing is a synonim of a flood of awful-appaling-cheesy-gross copies of western brands plaguing the entire world, but above all of unreliable, toxic and dangerous products made without any rules for the consumers as well as for the people who made them.
That's the core of the matter.

lol nevermind then. It's probably something fabricated anyway, and that's why there's no link.

Furthermore, a translation would be helpful because a lot of people on this forum don't speak Chinese; and because of its character system, it's not easy for us to translate ourselves. Tons of us are missing out on this valuable information.

Cerebrally-chanllenged comrades cannot learn Chinese, I think

Cerebrally-challenged comrades are learning languages that are more salient to their careers and/or personal interest.

Link?

Shuimo I'd like to break your anus

==================
You need to learn Chinese to fully understand what I am talking about!~

You need to learn Chinese, it's the most useful language... But you can't because you're cerebrally-challenged... But... you should learn it anyway!

It's Shuimo's real-life problem. He can't get laid because he's a virgin. Only way he can cease to be a virgin is to get laid, but he can't because he's a ...! See?

Shuimo, no one gets what you're saying. There are a select few people on this board who know Chinese, and even fewer who can read the character system. It's not like Russian or Portuguese that we can just plug in to freetranslation.com if we don't know the language, so all you're doing is flaming on a site that already has plenty of trolls who post in languages we CAN read (or at least have translated).

And because of it, our Chinese friends on this board and the ones who do speak Chinese are having their questions ignored. If these articles are genuine, post the links, and make sure there's a way for us to translate it.

Anyone concur or am I just encouraging this idiot?

==================
Nonsense!
Of course someone do get what Shuimo is saying!
Shuimo assures you that all I post here are genuine articles from Chinese websites! I do provide links quite often!

If someone wants to aks questions, fine!
They just go for it!

Skippy,

Calm down. Shuimo doesn't have solution. So relax
