How do/did you cope with the basic four tones of Mandarin? Theoretically, there are four tones in modern Mandarin, namely, —(55 Tone 1) /（35 Tone 2） V（214 Tone 3） \(51 Tone 4). These tones, especially tone 3, can be confusing. it's misleading for foreigners, i think. so i'd like to know how do (or did) you deal with the tones. many thanks!

are you a "one-legged" Chinese learner? by "one-legged", i figuratively means such Chinese learners as those who only study Chinese pinyin instead of Chinese characters. I was told that such learners consist of the majority of all, 'cuz it's much easier and faster to pich up Chinese. also, they have "two-legged" learners---those who study both pinyin and characters, usually intensively, as a major or else. so, as a chinese learner, to which group do you belong? I'd appreciate it if you provide some of your own ideas. thx!
