I have heard that Chineese is one of the very difficult languages to learn. I heard that French is easy to learn. I am also interested in Chineese. Can you please tell me how are you learning it? I don't know any source from which I can learn Chineese. I learned Syriac as a part of my bachelor's degree, but kind of forgot it now. I wsant to refresh it. Is there anybody who can help me?

I have learnt French and now I can talk it fluently, I know how to speak Hindi too, and now I am learning Mnadarin, it is easy in a way if you really wanna learn that. Nut you got to understand the 4 tones first then you can try small wordings like Ni Hao ma?- How are you?, Xiexie- Thank you, Hao ji le- Excellent, like these;-)

Thanks for the information. How can I actually learn it? Is there any material available online? I have studied Hindi for 10 years, now I need to brush it up.

I learn from a book and I think it is a good starter for any language. Well I often go online to check for words I think might not be in the book;-)

Oh I love the Chinese language! I love it even though I don't really know how to speak it fluently. I loved the Chinese Language ever since I watched Chinese Paladin. I think it's a really interesting language and I'm really dying to learn it. I want to speak Chinese fluently like my Chinese idols like Hu Ge, Liu Yi Fei, An Yi Xuan, Eddie Peng, and Liu Pin Yan. I envy them for being a true blue Chinese citizen. I sometimes wished I was a pure Chinese citizen like them. But I'm still proud to be Pinay. Happy myLotting and good luck!

Wow, really? Glad to know that she's still getting so much attention in China! I haven't heard any news from her since I'm not really active in Friendster anymore. There's a group there that's always updated on happenings on Liu Yi Fei's life. I've been a fan of Liu Yi Fei for some years now. I admire her beauty and being humble so much! Thank you for your comment, friend. Sure, I would love to ask you about Chinese language (preffeably Mandarin) and China in the future! Thank you! :) I would really love to learn to speak Mandarin. I'm so dying to learn it! Happy myLotting! :)

I'm Chinese, Chinese is really interesting and useful, I'm learning English now, and I also find English is interesting, and it is very useful, some people say that Chinese language is a little hard to learn, and nothing is the easiest language to learn... Hope you have a happy study time.

Hi, I'm glad to help you, Chinese is a little hard, so I think it's better to have a Chinese class, and you can learn from a teacher, or you can study from the websites, I think it's better to have some Chinese friends, and you can learn from them, and ask the words that you don't know, it's a good way to learn, hope I can help you, and if you have any Chinese languages you can ask me, I'm glad to help you.

I speak Mandarin...not fluently but good enough to survive around chinese people. I tried to learn chinese for 2 mos in Taiwan but got so bored of it. It was not fun. After a couple of mos I forgot how to write the basics already but I can still read a few easy Chinese characters.

Great but learning a different language takes time and we should allow ourselves the time to be able to grasp everything, Well I just hope I will be able to do that.
