[edit] Mme Chiang's languages
There's one thing I am very curious about, though - does she know Cantonese? Mdwav 0:52, 8 Feb 2006 (UTC+8)
- Interesting question. Soong May-ling was a Hainanese Hakka born in Shanghai whose father lived a Cantonese Chinatown. That's four possibilities so far. She was also a translator for her Wu native husband who, along with Soong Mayling's father, likely also used Cantonese as it was the language of early Kuomintang. However, her formal eduaction was in English so I wonder how well she knew any of them? Post it to the article when you find out. - AjaxSmack 03:05, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
