Learning Chinese
-
I just had my third lesson today. It is hard to learn, but hard to forget, since there are almost always a reason on why a word is constructed that way. For instance, the word "good" in chinese is actually a combination of the word "son" and "daughter" in Chinese. This somehow reflects how the Chinese think: having a son and daughter is good. :) Anyone learning Chinese too?

I took a year of Mandarin in my 4th year of college, because I thought it would be fun and I could fit it into my course load. It was fun, but a lot of work. Here's a tip for learning characters: Get some 3x5 index cards and cut them in half. Then on each smaller card, write a character on one side and the pinyin on the other. I also made up a character practice sheet that you can use when practicing your writing: clickety[^] 我学了一年的中文，可是我现在记住的中文不太多了。:(

It is kind of exciting when I can read some Chinese characters on the sign around China town. The 1,2,3 in Chinese is unexpectedly easy:)
