Stop in the middle of the road or in front of the elevators. Clip nails in public transport. Burp and fart in restaurant without a word. Drop trash on the floor. Spit in the street… you name it, I’ve seen it all.
And again, like all generalities, it doesn’t make much sense. I know not all Chinese people are like that. Especially your mom lol.
Well if you can count to ten in mandarin, you can count to 100.
It’s literally 5 10 2, 5 10 3 for 52, 53 etc.
Add one more word for hundreds, one more for thousands.
After that it gets tough cause numbers beyond thousands are split by packs of 10 thousands, not hundred thousands like most western world (I guess).
Similar to the lakh in Indian
