Re: Chinese (Traditional)
Sorry to bring it to you buddy but there isn't a language called "Chinese (Traditional)". You have the traditional Chinese alphabet and the keyboard layout/character set in Windows is usually called "Chinese (Traditional)" but what you are looking for are people speaking Mandarin.

Re: Chinese (Traditional)
Traditional Chinese is the writing style. There is, ever since Mao, 2 ways of standardized writing for Chinese, Simplified and traditional. Simplified is used within China, where traditional is used in Taiwan.
Speaking Mandarin, which is waht you are probably looking looking for, is consistent between the 2 styles of writing. However, there are many different dialects of Mandarin. The standard dialect is the Beijing dialect, so you would want to learn that dialect.
Now, for americans, chinese is pretty difficult to grasp. With chinese, you need to know tones and the proper pronunciation. I'm currently learning mandarin chinese, and i can tell you that there's alot to the language.

Re: Chinese (Traditional)
@HK: well, the same holds true for any other language. Chinese is very different, as they don't have an alphabet, and that their words have roots in pictography. I think i heard that your past prime minister Kevin Rudd speaks fluent Chinese, so that's something you can look to.
For americans, as far as i see it, i think the major obstacle for learning chinese is their complete igonrance for the language itself, mocking it as just "ching chong foo goo ding dong" stuff. (look up "ching chang chong") But all that's gonna change when China takes over the world
hopefully other cultures are more open to different languages and cultures than the US is..
What exactly do you want to learn from mandarin?

Re: Chinese (Traditional)
I'm guessing your looking for people who know how to speak Mandarin. Personally I find learning to speak Cantonese is easier even though apparently it's harder to learn, but that's my opinion.
