[quote space-time]Binky, thanks for asking your mom. It makes sense, if I read from right to left (which I assume it's how Chinese is supposed to be read?)
Right to left? Why? I always thought this was unique to Arabic. I read Korean, and it's read left to right, just like English. However, sometimes Korean is read top to bottom, as in newspapers, menus written on the walls of restaurants, and on the front of buses, etc. - for saving space.
