11 eleven (shi yi) 十一 shi2 yi1
1,000,000,000 one thousand million, one billion (shi yi) 十億 shi2 yi4

different

wo yao tang de liang ge ren, kan de yi ke ren

both the yi1 and yi4, the sound very similar

yi4 higher tone right?

i use google translate to listen

can provide the actual romanised layman spelling?

eg
1 (ee)
2 (er)
3 (san)
4 (seh)
5 (oo)

that's a bit difficult for me. you ask questions lah, i try to answer. my romanised version is based on pinyin.

nowadays in english
2,500 can say as twenty five hundred

yi1 is a flat tone (YI~) while yi4 is a strong tone (YI!).

ya american always say that way

Niamahai .. sukati je say orang bodoh

$1000 = one grand

Mandarin language got 4 different sounds. Is the basic of learning mandarin. when you learnt the 4 sounds you will got no problem speaking mandarin words that consists of variety different sounds.

coz their biggest note is 100... n by saying so it is easier for low iq ppl to count

learning japanese without kanji is like learning english with only half the alphabets.

without kanji u cant read:

-Signs
-Directions
-Instructions
-Menus
-Mail
-Advertisements
-Labels
-Notices
-Warnings
-Official correspondence
-Their bills
n etc

ppl will u think u either illiterate or mentally challenged. in japanese they will call u a "baka"

Yí yì
here you go

Malaysians should learn to stop saying 二十千, 一百千.

tipu lah..1thousand in mandrin is yi lik, 2 thousand is liang lik..etc

Dey macha, did i ever say no need learn kanji? Did you have comprehension problem? What i said was i learnt hiragana, since hiragana was the first thing taught in japanese class. Bodoh nak mampus kau ni

So mandarin is officially Chinese now?

say to girl: you know where is the 67?

Regardless of which Chinese dialect/language you're speaking, the character is still the same.
Personal question, can you read Chinese characters?

Ayam not Chinese, thats why the question.

Its something like saying Indonesian is "Malay", or Hindi is "Indian". That's my understanding & mohon pencerahan if mistaken
