Actually I am just about to comment on an article published on 教坛,汉语的十大优势. I feel it did not reveal the real value of Chinese that I had discussed with 西老大 before. 西老大 said Chinese is an object oriented language. He might capture something interesting in Chinese though he did not explain enough what it really meant by "object oriented ".。 My opinion is that Chinese, with its open structure, can easily absorb other languages.
However, in its attachment, the article gives some interesting example to compare Chinese and English.
