I want to find free websites where I can download, or listen to full audio. I found a small 60 second clip (Ocean waves) which is meant to subconsciously teach you Chinese, but I want to find the full versions.

This question is for those who have used the new Practical Chinese Reader Book....I want to join this review contest but I'm not quite sure what to say.

The first tense is: " I want to introduce my finger into your mother’s eye ". And the second tense is: " I want to take my finger out of your mother’s eye ". I have special interest in knowing how I can say "introduce (something) into" and "take (something) out" in Chinese. I would like to have the answer of one person who really knows mandarin Chinese, with its transcription into Pinyin, and not a simple translation of some authomatic on-line translator. Finally, you must to know English isn’t my native language, so hope you overlock my possibles mistakes of ortography and answer directly to my asking, please.

This is a Chinese grammar related question as I am studying the Chinese. What does 就 mean in this context? 本报记者最近就生日礼物的问题作了一项调查。 校长就教学改革计划对学生们进行了解释。 So in these two sentences, what does 就 mean?

this is for my own personal education im curious as to how close i am to translating this correctly anyone out there who has the time to translate this it is much appreciated. Alright here it is: I went to Seattle for my holiday because I have family and friends that live there as well as a house. I lived in Seattle before I moved to Bei Jing this is why I frequently visit. I stayed in Seattle for three weeks at my old house. During this time I saw many old friends, snowboarded and family members from australia came and visited. My grandmother and grandfather on my mother side came from sydney to share christmas with us. An aunt and uncle also stayed for a few weeks in our house with us. My eldest sister came with her boyfriend on christmas. Both of them already live America. There are mountains to snowboard on within 30 minutes of my house. My favorite part of my holiday was seeing my old friends. Many of them can drive which made it easy to see a lot of them. Christmas and New Years were also fun with my family.

Hi! So I'm very interested in learning Mandarin Chinese. I think it's a beautiful language, and because it's so popular, it would be useful to learn it. My only problem is, I have a high-schoolers budget, which means that I can't afford something like the Rosetta Stone software. Do any of you know something similar, but at around £20? Thank you x

I’m going to school in china, either 6th or 7th grade.. Anyone knows what its like? I mostly speak English, and my Chinese is not very good and i can’t write Chinese. I’m worried about making friends and schoolwork because i can’t really speak Chinese. Also, what is the curriculum like compared to Australia? i don’t want it to be too hard for me. Thanks.

I need to make it sound right. Help!

I am translating a sentence from mandarn Chinese to American English and I am hoping one of you can help me. The part I am having trouble translating into English is the literal phrase of, "Zhang Mrs. Doctor." Please keep in mind that this is a form of addressing this woman. I would translate it as Dr. Zhang. Should I leave out the "Mrs." or include it somewhere? Thanks. :)
