Chinese
Most of Chinese writing comes from picture, so we can understand the meaning of words easily. Therefore, it is difficult to pronounce words which we have never seen before. I remeber that we spent half year learning pronunciation in elementary school. At that time, there is no any writing in the textbook. At the first four years of elementary school, our writing must with pronunciation in the textbook. Some words are similar, especailly some words are just different between the length of one drawing. Therefore, Chinese is difficult to write and pronounce, but it is easy to understand the maning if you know a lot of chinese stories and culture.
Arabic is one of the greatest languges around the world .
Last week we staudied about languages in genral and spaecilly about english langeage. It was intresting to learning about other languages than your languge; and the the histroy of english theought the history. We learnd also that english has the largest veocublry of any language. On the other hand I would like to let my friend to know a litel bed about my language arabic. It is an old language and specil at the same time; it has 28 lateers and uncountable words.

The Hardest Language
Arabic language is one of the largest language in the world due to it's popularity. Also there are 22 country that speak arabic. In addition, there are 28 alphabet letter in our language. furthermore, our language is the hardest language in the world for some reasons. one of these reasons is that there are some letters that's difficult to pronouns. The other is that the grammar is to complicating so no one can learn arabic perfectly in a short time. Finally, eventhough arabic language is a hard language to learn, it's grammars and condition never change by the time.

Chinese, one of the oldest language
As you know, Chinese has more than 4000 years history and it is very different with the western languages. Because everybody has read the article about Chinese from textbook last week, I would like to share some points of the different between Chinese and English.
First, the meaning of the Chinese is very complex. Because of the long history of Chinese, one word could have different meanings in different time. In addition, one sentence could also have many meanings. Therefore, it is very difficult to understand the old sentences and it will be confusing if writer use some old meaning of words in the article. I remember a linguistician said " The ways of express are very different between Chinese and English. In English, the speaker should let the listener understand what they said. However, in Chinese, the listener have to understand the speaker's meaning by himself/herself." I think the linguistician clearly describe the different between these two languages.
Second, the grammar is also different between these two languages. In Chinese, the words are separate and there are not many clearly grammar rules. However, there are still some rules in speaking Chinese but the rules have many exceptions. Therefore, although we complain there are many grammar rules in English when we study English, I think it will be more difficult for other people study Chinese.
Although Chinese is very different with other language, I think it is a very beautiful language. You can find a very beautiful meaning even a whole picture in a short sentence. I think that is because of its old history. There were many writer who contributed to these old language and leave many beautiful articles.

Korean Language
Korean language is called Hangul. Why did Hangul be made? Now we learn about Hangul.
King Sejong has made Hangul in Chosun Dynasty to let poor people reduce crimes because he thought they can read a book and can know low so that they will not do crimes.
Korea has 10 vowel and 14 consonant. Most koreans can make 1904 sound by using Hangul.
The basic form of a Korean sentence is Subject Object Verb. In a standard translation of "I'm going to the store to buy some food", the Korean order would be *"I food to-buy in-order-to store-to going-am."
There are no fewer than 7 verb speech levels in Korean. The highest 5 levels use final verb endings and are generally grouped together as jondaemal, while the lowest 2 levels (haeyoche and haeche) use non-final endings and are called (banmal, "half-words") in Korean.
