The Language Indicator: If You Want To Stay On Top Of Technology, You Need To Speak Chinese

18th December 2007

Read it. An interesting perspective. I must confess that I have no clue as to how one would go about doing a “search” in an ideogrammatic language, but I suppose there must be some way of doing so.

Which brings up another thought: Since Chinese characters are ideograms rather than syllabary, it ought to be possible to read and write “Chinese” without actually knowing one of the (mutually unintelligible) “Chinese” dialects. Hmmm.
