Hello busenitz,

What makes chinese and japanese differentiate? I mean they look the same and they even sound the same when speaking english. Even Koreans in that group. Similarly, the whole continent of africa filled with black people, how do you differentiate them?

My point is we might look similar, but we are nepali and we have our own culture. It might be hard for a person to tell who we are by looking at us. That is why we ask. WE cannot be ignorat and just assume that this guy looks like indian, i mma call him indian. YOu try calling a japanese "chinese". You know what, try caling a person from taiwan or tibet, chinese. and see the reaction you get. ITs the same calling all the latin people as mexican. or calling the aussies as new zealanders or vice versa. They all get pissed and so as we.

So, i think the question is how are we similar to indians?

ANd to tell the truth I find myself very less similar to them. (Ma gurung ho with chinky eyes. Look more mongoloid.)


I am sure those chinese dont have the problem how they are different from japanese...
