Chinese EnglishChinese and English were two different languages with the following characteristics:
** 1. Language Type and Range of Use **
1. ** Chinese **
- It was the official language of China, one of the official languages of Singapore, and one of the six working languages of the United Nations. It was mainly used by the Han people, some Hui people, Manchu people, and other ethnic minorities who could speak Chinese. In Southeast Asia, such as Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, and Brunei, as well as in Japan, Australia, the United States, and Canada, the Chinese community also used Mandarin.
2. ** English **
- It belongs to the West Germanic branch of the Germanic branch of the Indo-European language family. It is the most widely used second language in the world and one of the working languages of the United Nations. In history, due to the leading position of the United Kingdom and the United States in culture, economy, military, politics, and science, it became a quasi-international language. More than 60% of the world's letters were written in English, and it was used in many countries around the world.
** 2. Language structure **
1. ** Chinese **
- ** Word structure **
- The structure of words can be divided into two types: simple words and compound words. Compound words can be divided into compound, overlapping, and additional. Modern Chinese vocabulary is mainly composed of basic vocabulary, archaic words, dialect words, foreign words and idioms.
- The ancient Chinese had the advantage of single syllable words, while the modern Chinese had the advantage of two syllable words. For example,"Mu"(ancient Chinese) and "Yan Jiao"(modern Chinese).
- ** grammar structure **
- It lacks the change of form in the grammar, and takes the empty word and word order as the main grammar means. There were fifteen categories of words, such as pronoun, verb, and adjective. Compared to the ancient times, modern Chinese had some similar phenomena of form change. The phenomenon of flexible use of parts of speech had decreased, and there were more connected components in sentences, making the structure more complicated. For example,"I eat", the meaning would be different if the word order was changed, and "eat me" would not conform to the normal logical meaning.
- ** Voice structure **
- The modern Chinese common language uses the Beijing accent as the standard pronunciation, with 22 initial syllables (including zero), 39 finals, and 4 tones. There were obvious changes in the pronunciation, such as "dividing Yin and Yang equally, entering the school of three tones" and the voiced initial.
2. ** English **
- ** Word structure **
- Words formed from 26 letters. As new things continued to emerge, the number of words continued to increase, and the length of the words also tended to become longer. In the early days, short words were mainly within 6 letters. Now, new words were mainly long words with more than 8 letters. There were also many long words with more than 10 letters.
- ** grammar structure **
- There were abundant changes in the form of words, which could be used to express tenses, voices, singular and plurals, and other grammar meanings. For example,"book"(original form),"books"(multiple form),"is reading"(present continuous form), and so on.
** 3. Writing System **
1. ** Chinese **
- The use of Chinese characters belonged to the ideograph of morpheme syllables. It was the unity of form, sound and meaning, and it had the ability to transcend time and space. There were many Chinese characters, and many of them were homonyms and polysyllables. For example,"good" had two pronunciations.
2. ** English **
- It was written in the Latin-script, and the number of letters was limited. The writing system was relatively simple, and there were certain rules for the spellings and pronunciations of words, but there were also many irregular situations.
** 4. Learning difficulty **
1. ** Chinese **
- For foreigners, the strokes of Chinese characters were complicated, and their grammar was different from many foreign languages. A Chinese character could have many meanings, and there were many homonyms and polysyllables. A sentence could have many expressions, and there were many idioms and other special expressions in Chinese, which increased the difficulty of learning.
2. ** English **
- Although there were fewer letters, the amount of words to memorize was larger, especially long words. The grammar rules were more complicated, such as tenses, voices, and so on.

The Year of the Chinese New Year episode introduced the grand finaleThe finale of 'The Year' was ridiculed by many fans. In the six episodes of the super episode, the male lead Pei Wenxuan's scenes were far less than the second male lead Su Rongqing's, which caused dissatisfaction among the fans because the audience mainly wanted to see the Rong Xuan couple.
The female protagonist, Li Rong, did not want to help Li Chuan after knowing that she was poisoned by Li Chuan in her previous life. She was about to go out to look for Su Rongqing when she was stopped by the male protagonist, Pei Wenxuan. In the original novel, Pei Wenxuan's men had already left the residence and were still fighting with each other. The plot was cut but the lines were not cut, which was abrupt. The female lead, Li Rong, fell off the cliff and was saved by the second male lead. In the drama, the two of them even had intimate scenes of spinning in circles, which made the male lead's character in an awkward situation.
The first 34 episodes had too much plot foreshadowing, making it difficult for the last six episodes to support the climax of the original novel. After the production team cut and edited, a lot of the plot was missing, and most of the scenes that pushed the finale were the second male lead. In the original novel, although the second male lead had a lot of scenes in the later stages, the male lead's scenes were not as few as in the drama, making the ending seem rushed and childish.
Overall, the male and female protagonists experienced two lives in a dream. In the previous life, they loved and killed each other. After rebirth, they resolved the misunderstanding. From enemies to best friends to lovers, they found the truth in the chaotic world and reunited. However, the ending was not good and caused many disputes.
