I speak a few languages, it's like the one thing I seem to have a knack for.

I have been working on my Mandarin again, I studied it some in university but have not used it actively for years. There's potential I could transfer to my company's head asian office, which is based in China. My position wouldn't require it, but living there I would want to improve my Chinese level. I should probably learn Cantonese too on that note.

It's a pretty fun language to study, because after you are comfortable with the pronunciations it is all just vocab and idioms. The grammatical structure is like my favourite thing.

现在你用什么材料学习?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

我有大学时的旧教科书 (汉语与文化读本 and Tuttle books),还收看当地的中文新闻广播。

您有什么建议吗?

没有什么建议。我大部分只用句子Anki卡。比如Spoonfed Chinese等。
