- How to pronounce "R" in Spanish? just can't get a vibration of my tongue... :-( I just started learning Spanish this semester. I'm beginning with the pronounciation, and the "r", or "rr", seems like the most difficult problem i'm facing now. :o( How to pronounce it correctly? Is it very important to pronounce it precisely? Or there is a way i can do it alternatively? Thanks in advance! 谢谢!Gracias! Danke!October 8, 2010110
- 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!November 2, 2008140
- well, i think i have really "achieved" more than i had expected. you know, i was totally overjoy when i was for the first time confronted with italki (i've forgotten how.). "Finally, i find a place to communicate with real foreigners actually!" i thought, so i registered quickly and started to sending out hopefully my olive branches of friendship. Some returned with a message of confirmation, while some just sank like stones. One by one, I did add to my friend-list nearly 60 people, old and young, male and female, domestic and foreign, each with a unique character though most with the identical performance. Anyway, I met some nice and sincere guys and talked with them. It made me feel my horizons broadened, my outlook brightened, and my self-confidence strengthened. oh boy! I just loved that feeling! Of course, I also got kind help with languages like English and French; I also offered sincere help with languages like Chinese and English. Meanwhile, totally out of my expectations, I gained more than the above. Due to my personal experiences on italki within the past months, some big change has taken place in my impression of westerners as well as of the world. No people, no minds, no characters are actually perfect; perfectness lies only in imagination. "So i shouldn't have expect so much of someone and something unknown to me," I realized eventually. At last, something from the bottom of my heart: Let peace prevail; let sincerity stay; let friendship win!0 votedOctober 27, 20080
- 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!October 16, 200870
