    Default Learning Chinese Language

    Hopefully JoyceChen will help me out with this thread. Just wanted to start one for people interested in learning Mandarin &/or Cantonese.

    Let me know if anyone of you are interested in learning/teaching so we can get this started!

    I'm a Chinese student. Maybe I can help when you have some problems, although teaching seems impossible due to my English level....

    I have no idea what you said, dui bu qi, haha, just "wo" & "ni."

    & I have a friend who's Chinese, so I learned a few phrases from her.

    & I want to learn it b/c it's so different from the languages I already speak.

    Hi all,
    Chinese people never use spelling words in there daily affairs,they use the Chinese characters. For example water is 水 not shui, because shui is only the pronunciation of 水. I feel unconfortable when I see people use pinyin(spelling word,also pronociation) instead of Characters.
