Hey there are using WordPress for your site platform? I’m new to the blog world but I’m trying to get started and create my own. Do you require any coding knowledge to make your own blog? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

What I find interesting in this language, is that speaking to a local in our province, Fugian you often get a response of “ting bu dong”.

Shi si..is spoken si si, so it’s either 14 or 14

In the English language if someone from another country is attempting English you get the drift, most times, in Chinese not so, but I still love learning the language and am happy when I can have a conversation and they understand what I’m saying. There is a sense of accomplishment.

@Don

Be careful now on how you translate, if you dont have the tone or a basic feel of the Chinese Language.
The complexity of the Chinese Language comes from 6000 years of Stewing and is still stewing, like the ChongQing Hotpot.
Eg if you write to your Girl in Naning
Nin Kan Shen me5?
( What are you doing ? )
and
Nin KUNT Shen me5?
(What are you Fucking ! )
You will be in HOT soup.
:-) :-) Better to study in Beida First, for a better chance.

Don,

You’d be better off finding a Chinese poem… Poetry never translates that well between any languages, let alone English and Chinese! My girlfriend and I use the poems about the cowherd and the weaver a lot, very appropriate for lovers separated by distance.

Hello everyone,

I am from a Chinese from Singapore, hence, both English and Chinese Languges are very commonly used in my daily life.

However, I would like to say that studying of Chinese should not be totally for the sake of China’s economic growth. Rather one should study for the interest in Chinese Culture and Art.

For beginners who want to get some basic knowledge about chinese, I can also advice you to try this online audio lessons:

It’s free and available with audio files for the pronunciation.
