Chinese Acquisition Tips - By: Jonh King

As for Chinese learning, nearly all the learners feel uneasy, for this language itself is really difficult, especially for those who have been using letters to express their meanings and ideas. But don't you think one can really become professional in this language or just so fluent in speaking Chinese? The answer is YES! You see, some English speakers have done this well. The most famous Chinese learner from Canada can now speak Chinese as he speaks English. Even Chinese people think his Chinese level is high. This is of course one important example, which must stimulate you to be prepared to learn it. But some learners may argue that this man has been learning Chinese and speaking it for so many years and he is now in China as one host in CCTV 9. They cannot reach his level. While the view we hold is that whether you have the ability to do so. Now some people have done that! So it is very necessary for us to try this language as well as our inner ability.

But for the Chinese beginners, learning from the most basic elements is a must. Most probably billions of people around the world can recognize English, so this is one advantage for you. You see, the traditional Chinese characters tend to be too difficult to touch, while the Chinese alphabet should be very easy for you guys to understand, for the Chinese alphabet consists of 26 English letters. The only difference is that each letter in Chinese possesses a different pronunciation. But generally you are very familiar with them. So in the beginning you can use such letters to pronounce Chinese characters for you. Some Chinese teachers told me that they are now trying to translate Chinese characters into letter-format form, so that their students can understand Chinese better. If you are learning Chinese with too much difficulty, you can try this way too.

Nearly the same time as you learn Chinese pronunciation, you can also remember Chinese daily talks. I am not saying that you should stand by a group of Chinese people, listening attentively to them. What I stress is that you can begin with the most fundamental sentences like good morning, nice to meet you, how are you such easily remembered things as Rosetta Stone Chinese always tells you. Don't belittle such easy and simple things! Such things can lay a solid foundation if you need to build the superstructure in the years to come. Certainly you should go to the Chinatown as often as you can and exchange Chinese with people from China. In fact, using Rosetta Stone software, you can also learn to talk Chinese, for it shows you the phrases, sentences as well as conversations which enclose the basic Chinese elements inside. If you can keep speaking with native Chinese, your work will become more efficient.

Besides, you should sip some bits of Chinese culture. Generally speaking, Chinese culture is a very complicated phrase, which includes so many aspects in China like history and politics. You can just read some books on it and know something. That's OK! When next time you speak with Chinese people, you will never feel you have nothing to say but the language itself. If you learn French even using Rosetta Stone French, the same problem still faces you. If you can sip something and speak it, the situation for you will become much better. Indeed, learning a language, you shouldn't confine yourself only to such measures I have shown you here. You still have other choices and I hope you can discover more of your inner ability.
