Hello 大家好. These days I'm busy with my work. Today I'm gonna share you guys about Chinese language learning from beginning. I don't know very much but I will share as far as I know , as I learn .
Chinese has two kinds of language, Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese. Nowadays they use Simplified Chinese. In my opinion simplified chinese is more better than traditional chinese,because it is easy to learn . In chinese language they have Hànyǔ pīnyīn(chinese phonetic), Hànyǔ (chinese language) , Pǔtōng huà (Mandarin). And then they specified in two, Zhōng Wén and Hànzì. Zhōng Wén means chinese character. Hànzì means how to pronounce the chinese character, chinese phonetic. Chinese have 23 initial,26 final and tones.
Tone is important when read chinese character and alphabet. Chinese has thousands of characters. On top of that, the language is tonal, so how you speak a word can completely change its meaning. Chinese have 6 level they call HSK1, HSK2,.......to HSK6. But you need to strat to learn from beginning next after is HSK1... If you have plan for scholarship or work you need to complete at least HSK level 4. As for me writing chinese character brushes are interesting and it looks beautiful. Sometime I'm bored I write down the vocabulary from HSK vocabulary book.
I'm sure that if you already learn from beginning you can make your selfstudy at home. Remember beginning is the most important . If you are the fan of chinese movie or series you can practice by watching them. And listening chinese song will also improve you skill. I usually listen chinese song search from Youtube although I don't understand 😂 . You can speak on your own at the mirror.
As for last I suggest you to try new languages even you are not interesting in those you can try just for fun in your free time. By learning new languages we can learn new culture, tradition, food , fashion and the other new things.
