How do I use Taiwan Mandarin ending particles?
I've been watching Taiwanese shows, and I notice that they add little sounds like "ah" and "la" and something like "se" and "wa." What are these for and how do I know when to use them? Thank you.I mean, just in Taiwan. I already know about the "r" sounds in Beijing and northern China.

Choosing own names in other languages? (Especially Chinese?)
I have expressed interest in studying abroad in Taiwan, and I was told that I am required to have a Chinese name for my international student ID card, but I also found out that Chinese learners have to get new names to fit in with the language, wether it's Cantonese, Mandarin, Hakka, etc.
Also, do you guys think that it's important to get new names in languages other than tonal languages? For example, do you think that Japanese people not being able to pronounce some names is a valid reason to get a Japanese name?
