Sometimes, I find the weirdest stuff in my spam filter. This week, there is a bunch of stuff about foreign languages. The funny part is I got a spam comment saying, “Since you know Mandarin could you help me blah, blah, blah, etc.?” and even though it has absolutely nothing to do with “Misguided Light,” I actually do know Mandarin. Or I used to know Mandarin. I’ve forgotten a lot. These days when I try to remember how to say something in Mandarin I usually think of the German first — or sometimes a weird mix of the two.
On a completely unrelated subject, it is really difficult to draw crowds of people, especially when you are drawing on cheesy black construction paper.
Maybe it was from someone who knows you know Mandarin from somewhere else? I mean, it’s been mentioned online a few times, though not here.
If that’s what it was, they’d do better to just Google for online language courses. They didn’t have a very specific question.
