My mom and dad are related (family tradition).

Our family is from France, but we've got a good bit of English, followed by a mix with Caribbean people. So I have Amerindian in me - the Carib tribe.
In the short term, I'm French Creole! :D

The people from my province (Shandong) is generally taller than those from all the other coastal provinces of China. It is believed by some scholars that "Shandongers" have Phoenician parentage.


I have a question for you. Were your parents dialects different? I worked with a guy who married a woman, both from mainland China, and their parents had trouble communicating because their dialects were so different. Is this a common problem in mainland China?
