網(wǎng)友討論： Is Taiwanculturally closer to Japanthan China? If not, is Taiwanthe inheritor of Chinese culture since the mainlanders do not come up to thesame cultural and religious level?
Culturally... no but Isocially and economically, yes. 文化上……不是。但我覺得社會上和經(jīng)濟上，是的。 i say Taiwanese areculturally more to the Japanese side. Of course their history and ethinicity are allattributed to Chinese, but they are more fond of Japanese culture andproducts. You'll be amazed how much they are alike whenvisiting Taiwan. 我覺得臺灣人在文化上更接近日本人。 當(dāng)然他們的歷史和種族劃分都是源于中國人。 但他們更偏愛日本的文化和產(chǎn)品。 你如果到臺灣來，會驚訝于他們和日本人都多相像。 but i guess the point here is that Taiwanreally should try to find its own culture, not trying to be like some othercountries.
if youhave ever gone to taiwan,you will see that TW does have its own culture -__- young people in TW are into japanese things, andin terms of fashion, japanese things are very popular there right now. this isbecause japan invaded tw for a few years, but it was not a necessarily badinvasion, because they left a lot of culture and infrastructure behind. my auntcan speak japanese because during her time, she had to learn japanese. and ofcourse, a lot of figures in japanese media are also popular in TW. Those in China and those in TW are all"hua-ren". TW is more culturally similar to China,obviously because a lot of ppl that are in TW are there because ppl from ourgrandparents' generation moved there. so yes, the TRADITIONAL culture iscarried on. There are quite a few distinct TW foods and dishes that firstoriginated in TW, as with many cities in China(Sichuan, Shanghai, etc). People in TW speak mandarinas it is the national language, but kids learn TWnese in school too.
如果你到過臺灣，你會知道臺灣確實有它自己的文化。
臺灣的年輕人喜歡日本的玩意兒，在流行方面，日本的東西現(xiàn)在非常受歡迎。這是因為日本占領(lǐng)了臺灣不少年，但那并不完全是一場惡性的入侵，因為他們在臺灣留下了許多文化和基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施。我的阿姨會說日語，因為在她那個年代，必須要學(xué)日語。當(dāng)然，日本媒體界的許多人物在臺灣也非常受歡迎。 中國和臺灣的人都叫做“華人”。臺灣在文化上和中國更相似，顯然是由于很多現(xiàn)在在臺灣的人是因為我們祖父母那一代人搬到臺灣的。所以，沒錯，“傳統(tǒng)”文化得以繼承。有許多獨特的臺灣食品和菜肴是臺灣首創(chuàng)的，就像中國很多城市一樣(四川、上海等等)。臺灣人說中文因為這是他們的國語，但小孩子在學(xué)校也學(xué)臺語。 Culturally Taiwan has found it's own niche.It's culture is close with China,but more western economically. 在文化上，臺灣已經(jīng)找到了它自己的定位。它的文化更接近中國，但是它的經(jīng)濟更西化。 I'm not sure about whatmajority of Taiwanese thinks but from outsider's prospective, Taiwan is predominantly Han Chineseculture. Taiwanese speaks Mandarin not Japanese, and language is main identityof culture. 我不確定大多數(shù)臺灣人怎么想，但是從旁觀者的角度來看，臺灣主要是中國的漢文化。臺灣人說國語而不是日語，語言是文化的最主要特征。 I agree with snk. Most of those whoconsidered themselves to be Taiwanese (that I know personally) seem to speakMandarin.
同意樓上，(就我認(rèn)識的人而言)大多數(shù)認(rèn)為自己是臺灣人的，都是說中文。 People in Taiwanspeak chinese, just like people in China. They celebrate Chinese NewYear and the moon cake festivals and other Chinese festivals just like peoplein China.Majority of people in Taiwancan't speak Japanese just like people in China. So you tell me how arepeople in Taiwan culturallycloser to Japan??
臺灣的人說中文，就像中國的人一樣。他們慶祝中國的春節(jié)，中秋節(jié)和其他中國節(jié)日，就像中國的人一樣。大多數(shù)臺灣人不會說日語，就像中國的人一樣。所以你告訴我，臺灣怎么會在文化上更接近日本呢？ Taiwan is closer to China then Japan. They don't celebrate anyJapanese events or holidays, but they do celebrate and follow Chinese holidaysand etc. They speak Mandarin and not Japanese. 臺灣更接近中國而非日本。他們不慶祝任何日本的活動或節(jié)日，但他們會慶祝、追隨中國的節(jié)日等等。而且他們說中文而非日語。 I'm Chinese and would justlike to say that tw people are like chinese people to me. Afterall they AREfrom Chinese heritage and their ancestors are CHINESE, if you look at thehistory. So it's no surprise that they celebrate and follow chinese traditions.They still struggle to find their own culture.. using mandarin doesn't helpthat cause either. Alot of TW people get pissed off when you call them chinesein north america. I find it funny that theyare so offended by that but yet they use the chinese language and follow theirtraditions.. If they want to be independent and have their own culture, theyneed to ditch "chinese" traditions and culture and language. Just my2c. 我是中國人，而且我會說臺灣人對我而言就像中國人一樣。畢竟他們是中國人的傳承，如果你看看歷史，他們的祖先是中國人。所以沒什么好驚訝他們慶祝、跟隨中國傳統(tǒng)。他們?nèi)匀慌υ诎l(fā)掘自己的文化，說中文也不能產(chǎn)生什么幫助。在北美，很多臺灣人會因為你叫他們中國人而生氣。我覺得這很搞笑，他們會因此生氣，但自己卻使用中文、并追隨中國傳統(tǒng)。如果他們想要獨立，擁有自己的文化，他們需要拋開 “中國的”傳統(tǒng)、文化和語言。這只是我的看法。 just being honesthere....japanese/chinese culture are all look similar to me! even the people! KOREANS in the other hand are the most easilyrecognized, since I have a korean friend who always "brainwash" me byshowing all the K-pop things! When I see the Korean actresses...I wasamazed...wow, Does Koreaalready apply cloning tech on entertainment sector? they all look alike! 我說實話……日本或中國的文化，我看起來都差不多！即使是人也差不多！
另一方面，韓國人最好辨認(rèn)的，因為我有個韓國朋友，他總是通過展示韓國流行的東西，來給我“洗腦”。當(dāng)我看到韓國女演員……我震驚了……哇，韓國已經(jīng)把克隆技術(shù)應(yīng)用到娛樂部門了嗎？她們看起來都好像！ We all know you are a trollhere, but there is some element of truth in your statements...whether or not ifit was deliberate. Chinese and Japanese written language look verysimilar and many times people (including myself) cannot distinguish betweenthese two....On the other hand Answer to original question:This is an odd question to begin with. Taiwanese ARE racially Chinese, orsomewhat like it, just different nationality. And everybody knows many Chinesehave bias against the Japanese more than anyone else so I would think not.
(回復(fù)樓上)我們都知道你是個痞子，但你說的也有一些是事實……不論是不是故意的。 中文和日語的文字看起來非常相似，人們(包括我)常常無法分辨。從另一方面 對最初問題的回答：首先這就是個奇怪的提問。臺灣按人種來說，是中國人，或者稍微像中國人，只是不同國籍。而且人人都知道很多中國人對日本人有偏見，比誰都多，所以我覺得(最初問題的答案)不是這樣的。 Japanese and Chinese writtenlanguage looks the same because many Japanese words are actually in Chinese.Well, can't really say 'Japanese words' because Japanese themselves refer it askanji which is 'Han Zi' because they adapted the chinese writing during HanDynasty. Japanese have their own writing which is Hiragana and Katakana. Notreally hard to distinguish Japanese writing system with Chinese one becauseJapanese writing system is less complex.
日語和中文的文字看起來一樣是因為很多日語的文字其實就是中文。好吧，不能真的說是“日本的文字”因為日本人他們稱它為“日本漢字”，即“漢字”，因為他們在漢代改變了中國的漢字。日本人有自己的書面文字，即平假名和片假名。要分辨日本和中國的文字體系其實沒那么難，因為日本的沒那么復(fù)雜。 Yeah...Chinese, Japanese andKoreans are all influenced by one another. This is another good reason why weshould learn to respect each other. 沒錯……中國、日本和韓國文化都是相互有影響的。這也算為什么我們應(yīng)該學(xué)著彼此尊重的另一個原因。 respect tends to be mutual 尊重應(yīng)該是互相的 Elaborate. 樓上請解釋 As much as I love Japaneseculture, Japan didn'tinfluence China.It was China influenced Japan and South Korea. 即使我很愛日本文化，但日本并沒有影響中國。是中國影響；了日本和韓國。 definitely not. the arrivalof chiang kai-shek and the KMT doesnt help that fact either. although japaneseinfluence is sometimes very evident. (臺灣)絕對不是(更接近日本文化)。蔣介石和國民黨的到來也不能改變這個事實。即使來自日本的影響有時候是顯而易見的。 Japanese letters contain aLOT of Chinese writing.....Koreaused Chinese writing long time ago. Even today in S.Korea, some important legaldocument contains a mandatory chinese letters (I saw my korean friend documentbefore (insurance)...I asked about the chinese writing on the bottom....he saidit 's mandatory (CMIIW) 日本的文字包含了“大量”中文字……韓國很早很早就使用中文字。即使是如今的韓國，一些重要的法律文件中也強制包含漢字(我之前看到了韓國朋友的文件(保險))……我問了文件尾部的中文，他說是強制性的)(不確定是不是)這不是轉(zhuǎn)了個圈 又轉(zhuǎn)到頭了嗎語言很大程度上決定一切啊....既不像中國也不像日本，更不像韓國。一種新時代文化 Post by Mirror_shadow (2012-07-23 21:28)
