Sorry if it seems cryptic, it's not meant to be. Putonghua is the worlds most widely spoken Language, known here as Mandarin or Chinese. The reason I wrote Putonghua was, believe it or not, an attempt to not confuse. I was hoping that a speaker would see it and post a reply.
I have my own boring reasons to strike up a chat with someone in the group who might speak it. There you go nuff said.
Even that answer seemed a bit pretentious. I guess I was assuming the post would be ignored unless the reader understood it. Think I'll stop while I can still get out the hole. :?
