    I am making a website to teach people how to speak one phrase a day. The site is still in progress. Check out the blog about what's going to be on it and etc.

    Suggestions and opinions are welcome. Let me know what you think.

    actually its very easy, the pronunciation is a bit hard at first though.. The language's grammar is very simple, IE he and she = ta. Thats one reason many people in china have trouble differentiating between the two in english!

    the written language is more difficult though thats for sure.

    Hmm yea, exactly writing seems harder. Especially those letters, since I'm used to Latin alphabet and it's a lot easier than Chinese alphabet.

    I downloaded this a couple of months ago, but haven't had a chance to look at it. Mite do it this weekend.

    Is it really that easy to follow?
