My new years resolution It has now been almost 2 months since I started studying Mandarin. From not knowing a single word, I feel like I have progressed alot the last months. Well, it would be strange if it wasn't the case, I guess. I have be using pimsleurs audio book program as my primary source of learning combined with everyday flashcarding using Anki. My plan is to start learning chinese characters after 3 months. This is also about the same time as I'm planning to start language exchange of some kind with a native mandarin speaker. That's accually why I signed up here. To start poking around the language exchange community. Best for me would be to find someone in the Stockholm area that wanted to learn swedish and maybe meetup over coffe from time to time so that I could get used to talking to natives. Hopefully these notebook updates will be in mandarin soon. =)
