What are the most confusing part of Mandarin when you started learning? As the title said, I'd like to know more about the struggle of yours when you were learning as a beginner. Thanks for sharing your thought!

Chinese learning games and APP project Hello, strangers! I have to make a work as my graduate project, and my team and I are considering to make a Japanese learning APP. However, only one of us has basic knowledge of Japanese and we are also having trouble with figuring out a new idea of game-based learning. Therefore, I am thinking about maybe we can make a Chinese learning game which faces foreign users and maybe it will be focused on either Taiwanese Zhuyin system or the basis of Mandarin(because we are running out of time), due to the fact that it will be easier compared to Japanese and I've got some ideas in mind. I don't think my teammates will approve it since they might argue that this will be unfavorable for our final grade but I would like to know how many of you will be interested in this project. Any thought is welcome! Thank you!

I woke up at 3p.m. today I've been doing projects and preparing for exams for weeks. Stayed up pretty late everyday. I had a discrete math exam yesterday which I put the most effort in it. Although I might fail it, at least it's over... I went to bed at 1am today and woke up at 3pm. I'm surprised that I can sleep for so long. I guess it will be hard to fall asleep tonight. Life is tough. *sighs*

Why Chinese, Finnish and not Chinish, finnese? Just curious about the logic behind this. Can I say that I am a Taiwanish or Taiwanian?

Met a weird guy on here There's a guy who messaged me on here and asked about where I live, my age and my relationship status. He said he is lonely and he needed someone to talk to wipe off his sadness. Therefore, he decided to go on italki and found my profile. Apparently, he found a wrong place and wrong person to ask for attention. I can't care less for others so I ignored him. Hope he's not bothering anyone else for his own problem.
