Learning Chinese blogging

Chinese language is my mother tongue. I speak Chinese (Mandarin, Teochew, Hokkien and so on). I write Chinese, I read Chinese. All these are natural to me. However, when come to Chinse computing, it is not something natural to me. I have been avoiding writing Chinese language using my computer for years … It is not really something that I can write easily using computer.

However, when I like to communicate with my friends from China, it is not so natural to write my email in English as English is still not a language that is commonly use in China.

After some thought and also encouragement of my friends, I have decided to start a Chinese blog and hope by maintaining a iTeochew I will write more often Chinese character using my computer. Hopefully by doing so, my Chinese writing using computer will improve gradually.
