Pimsleur Chinese

Pimsleur Chinese - Learning the Chinese language is a two fold challenge for Westerners: The sound, melody and flow of the language is quite different from western languages, and already slight different pronounciations can result in sometimes funny, sometimes embarassing mistakes.  And the written language is totally different from our western system.

To start with it's a good idea to use mostly your ears and brain and forget about the written language. It will still be a challenge, but it's manageable!

The Pimsleur language learning system is adapted to learning the Chinese language by listening to the audios and absorbing the new language very much the same you learned your first language: By hearing the sounds over and over again, your brain starts to attach meaning to them and befor you know it, you'll be spaeking your first few words in Chinese! 

You can listen ot a sound sample and see the range of Pimsleur Chinese language audio books here.
