haha that was brilliant, I can now successfully distinguish between a Chinese and Japanese man!

Seriously though... Do you think it worked? The part I'm most sceptical about is the "Chinese 'normal' walk Vs Japanese 'shuffle' walk"!


I don't know, but if you watch all the old war movies where they feature, you can sort of see where they are coming from.

You see, the thing is Ola, that nobody doubts your academic capabilities and ambitions. You do however suffer from the unfortunate attributes of social 'foot in mouth' disease i.e. arrogance; sarcasm; poor personal judgement and naivety.

Hopefully, experience will remedy this over time. In the interim, in order to be taken seriously by others, tone down your instincts to criticise; keep your own counsel and most importantly consider the merits of the time you spend listening and speaking being in proportion to the numbers of organs dedicated to those functions.

This is meant as honest advice to you. Good luck with your studies and your legal career ambitions.

May the Lord be with you. The Apostle

I was thinking about it...and i was just wondering what the main difference is..between japanese people and chinese people...physically...culturally...they all seem..oddly similar..to each other dont you think..???

They look different. Their foods are different. They have different cultures.

tanning to make yourself darker, and when you can't tan naturally in the sun we put chemicals on our skin to make ourselves darker skinned or even have teenagers going under cancer-inducing sunbeds to make themselves have artificially darker skin.


Okay, I'm just going to stop before this **** gets racialist.

Not really. I'm not trying to be racist, but they both like lots of rice, and when they speak they both just sound like 'Ching chong ring-a-rong!'. :dontknow:

I don't know exactly what the difference is, but I find that Chinese people tend to be shorter and angrier, whereas Japanese people always have quite big jaws and try and look more Western. :yep:


failz, only cantonese sounds like 'ching chong ring a rong' lol, mandarin and japanese sound completely different, like the diff between french and english,

and also, thats like sayin both english ppple and french pple like lots of bread... lol
all the japanese pple i know of r all very dark skinned,
only pple from southern coast of china have dark skin, pple from northern part of china r pale as ghost lol, and look more korean than japanese.
and also, chinese pple r not shorter than japanese pple, most chinese pple here in the uk were immigrants from southern china and hongkong, they r generally much shorter and darker skinned, whereas pple from northern part of china r generally much taller, male average height there is 5ft9, which is the same as britain, so dont run along with the stereotype of chinese pple being midgets, im british born chinese, and im 6ft1, thats not short is it?

japanese pple r good mannered, some chinese pple can be rude at times, but lets be honest, u prolly only interact with the ones that work in a chinese supermarket or restaurant, they r not exactly highly educated r they lol

overall, this thread is pointless, and OP, I'm concerned about ur oxbridge application,i hope u realise that they only take the elitest , right?

this is a very funny post. japanese are richer than chinese, so they look cleaner and more fashionable than chinese, however, we are catching up pretty fast these days.

FYI plastering "no offence" to the end of a statement DOES NOT NEGATE THE OFFENSIVENESS.



lol I think it makes it sound MORE offensive when people say "no offence"

that is so true! i am chinese myself and i am from northern part China. most of my friend are quite tall. i am 5ft 7, and i seem to be the shorteset few in my class. the average is like 175cm. girls are really light skinned. as you said, most of the darker skinned are from southern China, and they are generally shorter than northern people.
a lot of people say chinese can be rude at times, but there are nice people. well educated are better in their demeaners.. completely agree

Yes; great observational skils 'lil'. I wanted to understand the profile of the person who would be prepared to put such ideas/thoughts into the public domain. I understand now and have responded in kind. If you are wise enough to recognise the reactions to what and how you message, taking into account the views of the many respondant posts on your thread, it may serve to help you become more circumspect. I hope so. Care and attention 'lil' one.

May the Lord bless you...soon.

Your an f*ckin' idiot, no offence.

They couldn't be much more different. Different food, culture, history, language, and a lot lot more!

The reason you think they are similar is because you are ignorant and nothing else:top:

They're different nationalities so i'd assume that they'd have different accents, maybe different foods, different ways of life etc. I don't know why people automatically assume that there's somehow a way though to differentiate between someone from China and someone from Japan just by looking at them because while i'm sure there *are* differences, it's not like we can always tell the difference say between English and Irish people, or Indians and Pakistanis etc.

YES!

Well Japanese and Chinese languages sound totally different. They use the same character set (well, very similar anyway I'm sure there are some differences), but English also uses the same character set as a whole bunch of European languages that sound nothing alike. They have lots of cultural differences. To be honest, they're probably far more distinct from each other than English people and French people.
It's the little details; language, culture, food, society, economy, system of government, history and geographical location. I can see how you missed those.

I always assume that Japanese people are usually shorter than Chinese people. Don’t know if it’s true.
