[quote=APAULT ,32891]Kids learn pinyin in school here to help them learn Chinese..presumably to give a phonetic text to go with sounds. So it certainly does seem to have a purpose...but why were some of the letters chosen? They are very confusing when compared to anglo usage of the letters and combinations.I wish I could learn as easily as you Griz and I have been here a year. I have tried to learn phrases, but as I cannot produce some of the almost identical sounds and at the same time cannot master the tones, no-one ever understands me. I have found it easier to go to the fridge and get a cold beer for myslef than ask for bing pijiu (especially when half the time it is so un bing you are better off drinking tea!)But some of my friends succeed, so maybe I ain't trying hard enough![/quote]
