January 17, 2008 at 11:52 AMhi everyone, out of Jenny and Connie, which one of them has the most standard chinese. i am not sure which version of chinese is standard, since they all talk differently. What about John, even though he is American, maybe his chinese is the most standard?

January 16, 2008 at 4:27 AMThis lesson is quite hard. like many others who don't understand it, we can discuss the lesson together to try to understand it better. i've made a skypecast on skype so we can discuss it more. it is titled 'chinesepod'

January 15, 2008 at 3:19 AMwhat are some names of some hairstyles. for example, how do you call a 'mullet' in chinese. Once one the classmates was talking about a certain artists hairstyle, and said mullet, but didn't know it in chinese.

January 14, 2008 at 11:09 AMhey auntie, i feel the same, the first time i heard some of those names they sounded like a random bunch of characters. no way did i realize it was a name. instead of typing, is there anyway we can talk face to face, ie by webcam or so, because my hands are becoming a little tired now. maybe we can setup a huge webcam chatroom to have a virtual classroom.

January 17, 2008 at 11:59 AMi love listening to the 'dear amber' podcasts. She sounds very friendly. anyway, back to the point, is Jenny's accent that of the standard mandarin. Because i am tryign to copy her pronounciation. There are so many accents in china, which one do i follow.
