BTW, please tell me if you learned it before and where you are from.

Where can I learn mandarin Chinese? Any websites or books for Chinese learning?

I'm going in Taiwan for working. um my question is it ok if I learn Chinese language if I go work there. If not, is it ok to communicate them using my English?

I was just wondering about how to learn Chinese by good ways, such as memorizing, and writing the symbols (forgot what they are called) also could you give me a short list (or however long you want) of Mandarin Chinese colors, ms., Mr. Mrs., hi, bye, why, I, you, we, etc. If you were American and Mandarin Chinese was your second language do you know how to learn Chinese effectively?

Or are there any more popular languages spoken in most countries? Just curious to know, and would appreciate your sincere opinions! :-))

I'm just a beginner Mandarin language learner and I find Chinese so beautiful! What do you think?

I want to learn chinese as my major. only problem is, my school doesn't offer chinese so i have no experience. If i go into college for chinese, will they start me off from square one?

School Play.... Need To Sound FUNNY!

I was wondering how do you say "I don't care" in Chinese. I'm actually seeking for a word "care". I already know how to say I, and how to make negation. Thanks a lot!

So, I'm learning Chinese lessons. I really enjoy it, as I love everything about China. But recently a lot of people (they weren't Chinese btw) started telling me that Chinese people don't appreciate when a foreigner is learning Chinese, but in fact they don't like it. I just can't believe this, because Chinese people were always so kind and helpful with me, for example, my Chinese classmates showed me how to write simple phrases like 再见, etc. So what do you think about this?

I've always wondered- does Chinese have any roots like how Spanish has Latin roots? Where did Mandarin Chinese come from?

If you don't know the answer, please DON'T GUESS. How do you say "of" and "the" in Chinese language?

I've been looking for language courses (Mandarin) around NW11. I'm doing A levels so I cant really afford anything expensive and I can’t seem to find any close by. There's some running at my own college but it clashes with something else that I do so I probably won't be able to attend. I'm also a beginner. I have searched on the internet but, as aforementioned, couldn't really find anything of use. Could anyone recommend a good place to learn Chinese from scratch? Thanks... ..)

I plan to take Chinese lessons next month, so I want to know something first about Chinese characters. Since there are now two Chinese writing systems I can learn in Chinese lessons, how much does simplified Chinese differ from traditional? Seeing as there are thousands of characters in Chinese, they couldn't have changed all of them. So how many were "simplified"? Especially ones that are seen in common usage.

I’m getting a tattoo so I must know.

I am considering learning Chinese in college. I really want to, but I know it will be very difficult. FYI I took Spanish through high school, not that it really matters. But anyways, I would like to hear from anyone who has successfully studied Chinese. When did you start? How long did it take to get to your level? What was the best/worst part of your experience? Is going to china necessary to become fluent? Any information would be appreciated!

I've heard that Chinese is one of the most difficult languages in the world to learn. Despite that, I want to learn it. I have no idea where to start, and how to start. Do you have any recommendations on books about learning Chinese? Software? CDs? Anything? Where should I start, I suppose, is the fundamental question.
