More info 4. China - Exercise a high degree of caution View this post on Instagram Китайский 🇨🇳 . С начала сентября учу Китайский после двух очень классных поездок в Китай за последние два года. Язык совершенно другой: у них ни букв, ни алфавита, и каждое слово можно произнести с 4мя разными ударениями, и значить они будут абсолютно разные вещи. . Когда я жила в Ташкенте, к большому сожалению очень маленькое количество людей знало знало больше двух языков. Обычно это всегда были Узбекский и Русский, а свободное знание Английского уже считалось редко встречающимся навыком. Я очень рада видеть что этот тренд уходит и куча студентов осваивает новые языки. У меня в университете же, студенты в общем разговаривают на более 100 языках, и некоторые в одиночку владеют больше чем десятью. Тут уже привык к тому что ходишь по кампусу и можешь не понимать половины того, о чем говорят окружающие тебя люди. К тому же, из-за того что английский почти у всех второй язык, все очень толерантно относятся к различным акцентам и грамматическим ошибкам. Язык сближает, ведь это наше самое главное отличие от остального животного мира 😉 . Язык учить не сложно. Это ведь математика, не программирование, не рисование или театр, где нужен особый талант. Просто у кого-то есть предрасположенность к языкам, и у него уходит меньше времени на запоминание. Никогда не говорите что не можете выучить новый язык!! Это ведь самое первое, чему обучаются маленькие детки. . На каких языках вы говорите и какие языки учите?? Очень интересно узнать 🙂 A post shared by Veronica | Учеба За Границей (@_nikulyalee) on Sep 18, 2018 at 8:10am PDT China's status on the travel advisory list was updated mid-September due to Typhoon Mangkhut. Also, the Canadian government warns of isolated acts of violence occurring around the country, including bombings and protests. More info 5.

Jamaica - Exercise a high degree of caution @jstandley99embedded via Jamaica was added in early September due to the high level of violent crime and a state of emergency in one of Jamaica's northern regions. I was sad to hear this because Jamaica is one of my favorite destinations. I've been there twice, and I've never had any issues and always felt safe and welcomed by the warm-hearted locals. However, crime-related violence is a real issue in the country. But as a tourist, if you "exercise a degree of caution" you should be just fine. More info 8.
