jean-charles Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Any of you have a good "learn Mandarin" on Cd, the kind you put in the CD player in the car and "repeat after me:", .... ??Thanks Link to comment
Dan R Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Yes, behind the wheel Mandarin has brought me from my wife saying give up we can use English to her helping me with pronounciation.I wish they had a book with it to study at home but I do learn a lot in the car. Check Amazon.com, I bought mine there. Link to comment

Randy W Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 I have both the Pimsleur and the Behind the Wheel Mandarin - Pimsleur is a good conversational (how NOT to get picked up (the girl doesn't want to do ANYTHING with you) seems to be the main topic), while Behind the Wheel is a repeat-after-me vocabulary builder Link to comment
mercator Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 Pimsleur186833[/snapback]Ditto. Pimsleur is the best for audio. Rosetta is kind of interesting for the computer though. I highly recommend a bunch of different study methods, and even watching Chinese news on AZN or whereever to practice. I also decipher Chinese menus when I am at a restaurant. Those menus are handy - I may even take one with me to China for ordering. Link to comment
dstarsboy Posted February 1, 2006 Report Share Posted February 1, 2006 Pimsleur186833[/snapback]Ditto. I have done Mandarin I and now I'm working on II and III. Pilmsleur is hands down the best memory technique for learning foreign languages. Warning though, expect to pay around 200 bucks per Section. Link to comment
