Dean Knox Day #3

As Jay Chow came up on the iTunes playlist, I had to ask the question about Chinese music.

The question was: How can Chinese music be sung with intonations?

The answer: All intonations are disregarded.

Then I found out that it will be extremely difficult for me to really “get” Chinese. Intonations must be much harder than I thought them to be, originally… I mean, I still can’t get the four tones of Mandarin. I think I’m going to take “learn to speak Chinese” off the list of things I want to get done. I’ll at least go and focus on them Chinese characters for both Korean 한자 and Japanese 漢字.

And yes, I know this is cheating… However, I did write the beginning of this entry yesterday.

Okay, time for the actual entry for today.
