"I did fine in Mandarin. My parents speak it at home and there's only four tones. Sometimes people say there's five but fifth tone is just 'no tone' and that does not count. But before I got my letter my parents were talking about adding Cantonese, and that's either six or nine tones depending how you count it, and I am really glad I'm learning magic instead."
