大家都来说说你喜欢中文的原因是什么？
da jia dou hai shuo shuo ni xi huan zhong wen de yuan yin shi shen me?
Let's talk about the reason of learning Chinese. Why do you like Chinese language?
我喜欢中文的原因之一是在书店或者图书馆不必把头歪90度就能看明白书名。哈哈! 
wo xi huan zhong wen de yuan yin zhi yi shi zai shu dian huo zhe tu shu guan bu bi ba tou wai 90 du jiu neng kan ming bai shu ming. haha!
One of the reasons of learning Chinese, that because I don't to need to askew my head to 90 degree and still don't know the name of Chinese book in library.

I think Xiangmu means that the title on the spine of a Chinese book is easy to read because the characters are written from top to bottom, but on an English book the title is written from left to right along the spine, and then the book must be rotated 90 degrees to store it vertically on the shelf in the bookshop or library, and so you need to put your head to one side to be able to easily read the title.
