    Lots of Chinese people are terrible with Chinese. It's one of their little dirty secrets that they won't tell anybody, but that is 100% the case. It was a landmark day the first time I saw two Chinese people get into an argument about how a character should be written. It was such a cathartic moment, a relief that it wasn't just me.

    That said, this looks like either a 8-year-old's or an adult foreign learner's handwriting. It's shaky and uncomfortably legible.

      definitely adult learner, I don't know Chinese but the lines themselves are thin and fairly controlled even if the characters are sloppy.
