Chinese is difficult, full of tonal inflections.

The classic example is the simple word "ma", which has four different meanings, depending on which tone you use. (E.g. the "flat" tone, pronounced like the English word, means "mother".)

The Chinese test is presumably going to be a two-way thing, so they really do need to recite it.

They're making a dogs dinner of it 

And the best way to learn is to speak it out loud so Isaac is being a tool 

So what's new?
