I have a girlfriend in Chengdu, Schiuan Provence online dating. Can we learn conversational lessons? How do ebooks work? I only have a 32 G smartphone and a tablet. Is that enough for ebooks? I must wait to update my new phone on WIFI at the food store today godwillimg. Skype or WeChat recommended? Unfamiliar with both. Thanks, Stephen Horton

My son is 4 in May and is ready for a second language.

I am having a hard time to find how to say songwriter and music producer in chinese... If someone can help me, I will feel very grateful.

By my gmail:2030ntansh@biddefordschools.me.

What should I take up? French always comes to mind... So does German and Mandarin I guess..? What do you think will help in life and would be beneficial?

Looking to get a tattoo and the Chinese symbol for relax would be perfect. Everyone is always so stressed out. Relax and enjoy life.

I heard it in a Disney channel episode my kids were watching. And i want 2 know.

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.

i want to fool my friend into thinking that i speak fluently hehe how can i say this paragraph in mandarin? (you don't have to include pinyin, i can read the hanzi ^^) "I think the best way to learn a language is to speak it with other people, rather than learning it with books. But it's kind of hard to learn here because there are a lot of Cantonese speakers. Every time I go to a Chinese restaurant, I just hear Cantonese... I don't understand them. I was actually going to try and learn Canto, but there weren't enough resources online..." Please translate that like you are having a conversation with someone lol thanks in advance

I've read several questions and answers about Chinese v. Russian, but I'm still unsure. I'd like to learn Russian in particular because I love to read, and some of my favorite books were originally Russian. But I also know that Chinese is the bigger business language, and if you're going to do that, Mandarin is the way to go. Trying to exclude China's advantage in that area, which is the better choice?

I'm actually looking for the title of Joseph Heller's novel "Catch 22" and haven't had any luck. I'd like to get a hold of this book. I'm thinking it's something along the lines of “诡计二十二” (gui-3 ji-4).

I'm thinking it's something along the lines of “诡计二十二” (gui-3 ji-4). (Catch in this case is not as in "to catch a ball", but rather, when something seems to good to be true or too easy, often there is a "catch". This catch is an unseen detail that makes the situation much less appealing than it initially seemed. For example: someone offers to sell you his new Mercedes for $500....that sounds too good to be true....what's the catch? The catch is that it's down at the bottom of this lake....just give me the money and it's yours!!)

I recently started to attempt to teach myself Mandarin Chinese. I found a good website that is really helpful, but I still have a few questions. I am also trying to also learn how to write and read SOME of Chinese. So my questions are: -Can someone explain the whole "Radicals" thing to me? -And is there a way to pronounce a Chinese character, without know how to pronounce it? For example, like I could make up a word in English, and pronounce it without having to study the word.
