My brother often says self-mockingly that his poor skill in writing Chinese is a disgrace. Mainly because he did not spend enough time as a child in a Chinese cultural environment, his grounding in Chinese culture is relatively poor and he has always been very envious of his elder brother's and my own mastery of Chinese.
弟弟常自謔說他的一手中國字最見不得人，主要由於兒時薰陶不足，中國文化基礎較差，他對我們兄姊的中文基礎羨慕不已。
