I love China and Chinese culture. I watch Chinese dramas with English subtitles on TV every day.
Since I want to understand what they’re talking in Chinese directly, I am interested in learning Chinese here in the U.S. But I wonder if Taiwan language is same as Mandarin or not. Can I use Mandarin in Taiwan? Do they understand?
If I start learning either of them, which one do you recommend?
