#asmo can flirt fabulously well in chinese but as soon as you ask him about the weather his face goes o-o

Who out of the OM characters would attempt learning Chinese for Zhaoxi?

i feel like they've all at least considered it at some point or another, and i reckon they'd all give it a try, but they're varying levels of committed to it

lucifer, satan, barbatos and solomon are overachievers and manage to get a big vocabulary and knowledge of the sentence construction rules into their arsenals fairly quickly, though it takes them a little longer to achieve conversational fluency in speech(and zhaoxi will often drop a lot of idioms that they don't know in the slightest)

diavolo, simeon, luke and belphie are committed to learning, but either forget to actually do it or don't have enough time to, so their vocabularies are smaller, but they're actually better with casual conversation than the first four because they practise more with that than with textbooks and dictionaries

levi and beel are more casual about it, like they do think it'd be nice to be able to speak the language, but they're also both pretty content with just speaking to zhao in their usual one. they just sit in on the others' study sessions every now and then, maybe ask zhaoxi to give them a mini-lesson, so they've picked up a few phrases and such

mammon and asmo both express interest in learning, and will go through periods where they're suddenly super committed to it, but then forget one study session and forget the entire endeavour for a good while before suddenly remembering again - this means they both end up going over the same things over and over because they've forgotten them in between these periods, so they're very good with what they know, but outside of that they're pretty clueless
