| Fast Learning Chinese |
1. What is Mandarin Chinese?
Mandarin is "standard pronounced" Chinese. There is only one Chinese language
while there are so many different dialects. The writing system is all the same no
matter what dialect you speak. All national television and radio channels speak
Mandarin Chinese.
2. Mandarin has the simplified Chinese characters and the traditional characters.
Which is the best for us to learn?
In Taiwan and Hongkong, people are still learning the traditional Chinese
characters, while in mainland China, we've already developed the Chinese
characters several times, and only the simplified Chinese characters are taught at
all the schools and universities. They don't teach the traditional characters any
more at all the places. All the books, newspapers, text books are all written in
simplified Chinese characters. And it's much easier to write for you. So if you
desire to learn Chinese, and want to travel to China Mainland later on. Mandarin
Chinese (simplified) is the best for you. We'll also talk about traditional characters in
Level 1, so you can compare them.
3. Chinese characters look so complicated, is it possible for me to learn?

system to combine and construct different strokes into a character. Once you

fun!! Try it out at your 1st lesson, you'll believe it.
