Help - learning Putonghua/Mandarin and Cantonese
Hello,

There's so many materials for learning Putonghua and not very many for Cantonese. Can I get some recommendations as to what websites are good for beginners to learn Putonghua and Cantonese? Some good book recommendations would be appreciated as well. :)

I just feel so ashamed I only know about 10 Chinese words because I've never taken a class, while talking to people in China, but they can chat with me in English.
