Now I'm studying Mandarin at my Unjiversity. It's fun. So I would like to know a new friend who is also studying Mandalin. Maybe we can share the problem about studying this language and study it togathere.

I think if you can speak Cantonese well , you can learn speak Mandarin very easy , but if you can speak Mandarin well ,you will take a long time to learn speak Cantonese , because I am a chinese ,but I can speak Mandarin very well ,but Now I just can listen Cantonese well and can speak a little.

I think learning a language is very difficult. I mean you can speak the language fluently. I am Chinese. I can speak Cantonese very well as I am a native Cantonese speaker. My English is only "Okay". Mandarin is quite difficult for me. I can't remember four tones. But my listening is Okay.

i am a chinese student speaking mandrin , and learning japanese . they are not easy languages.

If you are chinese, you can easily master every dialect, but fot others it is hard to learn 2 dialects in one time, it is easier to learn mandarin & japanese(as i do) then mandarin & cantonese.

I living in Shanghai, a native Chinese.

I am not Chinese, and have been studying Mandarin off and on for a number of years. It takes more concentrated study than I have been giving it. Does anyone have recommendations for:

1) online articles on Mandarin grammar (for a linguistics paper I'm writing)

2) online tool to convert multiple characters to pinyin

Xie xie!
