I mean chinese language is a burden for chinese people. In recent years, I have tried to get understanding from other chinese people about this question, but I found it is difficult to think such fundamental question in chinese, and it is obviously easy to think this question in english. Certainly I think I cannot draw such a conclusion without english.
Sorry, my english is not very well but I am luky to find such a forum, because I can discuss with someone my question which confused me so much.
I wish I can find some friends here,Thank you for your paient.

What problems? Philosophical?

I doubt this is a problem specific to Chinese. Philosophers have always felt constrained by the language in which they try to express themselves, often requiring that they invent and define new concepts (in terms of common language) in order to tackle the issues which are troubling them.
