[quote=CANADAGUY,258728]>>...Getting away from pinyin was a crucial step, as learning characters really helped me to understand the relationships between the words far more easily. << Thanks Tom for your insight into learning some languages, especially Chinese. So you recommend I learn how to read Chinese at the same time that I learn how to speak it? Will learning it from someone who speaks Cantonese pose a problem? >>The fact that Chinese bears little resemblance to English hasn't stopped me from getting along well in my studies and I am now very confident in my listening, speaking, reading and typing (not writing) abilities.<< Excellent, good for you! How did you learn your Chinese? At a special school, private tutoring, friends? [/quote]
