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?

每天我七点半起床。我一边洗澡一边唱歌以后上课我学中文。中午吃午饭在我的宿舍然后我…

Today in school was the course selection sheets for next year. I'm in 10th grade and I can't decide if I want to take Spanish 3 (I had Spanish 1 and currently in Spanish 2), or to learn Chinese 1. I always wanted to take Chinese ever since I don't even know. I never really wanted to take Spanish, my mom made me. I really don't want to waste Spanish because I got all A's in Spanish and I am very good at it. But I know I can take Chinese courses in college, but I want to learn Chinese now. I am so undecided that I will leave it up to the person who convinces me the most to change my future (future, Spanish hehe ;).

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?

For someone who grew up to the English language. I'm 18 years old, and wondering, for how long it will take at my age to learn Chinese (including common quotations and sayings).

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

Do kids in China learn to read and write Chinese characters or the spelled out Chinese words?

I plan to do business in China, so I think I should try to know more about business Chinese, such as business Chinese words, business Chinese etiquette and so on.

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

I am getting a tattoo and I want Chinese symbols in the tattoo that mean battles beside angels. in as few symbols as possible as long as it shows that meaning. no more than 3 or 4.

I am using Rossetta stone and the pinyin setting is not that difficult but simplified Chinese characters are difficult. Are there any tricks to learning simplified Chinese characters, I find it difficult that I can't see any patterns in it?

My friend learned 20 Chinese characters in 1 hour. 5 hours later he still can recite them, read them, and write them really fast. Does this make him a genius?

I've been taking Chinese with a tutor 1 hour and a half a week for about 3 months I know the basics and now I'm learning the characters. How long will it take me to speak Chinese fluently? I am fifteen.

For example: year 2007 er ling ling qi nian or liang qian ling qi nian ? Thank you for explanation

What are the differences between 号 and日? why sometimes when somebody ask time, can be answered with says 现在九点, but also can added with 钟 (刚好九点钟= It's 9 o'clock). ???
