As I learn more and learn Chinese, I feel that I can enjoy the movies and songs that I’ve listening to even more. The more it I understand, the less foreign the language seems to me. Though, okay, so I’ve been listening to mandarin music and just listen to the Cantonese versions of the chinese movies. Two hours is really a long time to try to follow a movie by reading the subtitles only. Though, of course the chinese subtitles will match the mandarin and not the cantonese. Still I enjoy the added meaning to what I listen to. Subtitles can only give so much meaning and understanding of what is happening in the story. That’s why learning the language is so important. I must admit, subtitles are a nice learning tool. It actually provides incentive to learn the language too.
