My movie list

I should, maybe must write down something here. Lots of movies and feelings surrounded me, only short of time. Ah, I'm so near about my time. Maybe you can call me a time grubber.

We always complain the difficulties on spoken English.The use of idoms, the pronunciation of letter "r" in American-English,and the rising or falling tone in sentence.But how do you guess that the foreigners also have the same problems as ours when they learn Chinese.

Such is an example they wondered:

I heard from somewhere that speaking Chinese (including dialects,topolects,whatever lects) makes use of the left and right brain as the word-processing and tone-processing are located at either side of the brain, thus they say the reason native speakers of English (and possibly other no-tonal languages) have a hard time with mandarin is because when they speak they only utilise one side of the brain, so when tones come in, the other side of the brain is not used to it, and thus the 怪腔怪调 (strange accents and tones...no offence )

Is this true? Or what i heard was merely crappy craps?
