To learn Chinese can seem to be an insurmountable task. There are seemingly too many difficulties for soembody of English language origin to ever master this fascinating language:

• different writing with thousands of signs
• words that if they are pronounced mean something totally different
• physical distance to China (you can’t just quickly hop over to spend a weekend)

To learn Chinese well, one really would need to spend some time in China. And then where in China? There are different dialects of Chinese, with Mandarin Chinese being the main language. But then there is Cantonese Chinese, spoken in HongKong and Southern China, where there are a lot of economical activities…

One solution that will not make you perfect in either Mandarin or Cantonese, but will give you an excellent start and will immerse you into the language immediately is to listen to Pimsleur Chinese language audios. Everybody I know who used the Pimsleur method is raving about it. These audios allow you to go on a virtual trip to China, every time you listen to them.

Means, you are getting used to the different pronunciation, the ‘music’ of the Chinese language and you allow your brain to acquire the language similar to the way you first learned your own English language.

Learning Arabic can be quite a challenge, especially if you are trying to learn from books only.

The key reason most people struggle with new languages is that they aren’t given proper instruction, only bits and pieces of a language. You learn a few words, then some grammar, then something else but is does not seem to fit together….

Other language programs sell only these pieces — dictionaries; grammar books and instructions; lists of hundreds or thousands words and definitions; audios containing sometimes only useless drills. They leave it to you to assemble these pieces as you try to speak. Pimsleur enables you to spend your time learning to speak Arabic rather than just studying its parts.

It’s really like when you first learned to speak your own language: By hearing the sounds of the new language, your brain starts to get used to the ‘melody’ of the new language and it starts to add meaning to the different sounds (the Arab words). And before you know it, you’ll be understanding and speaking your first Arab phrase.

If you need to speak Arabic, be it the Eastern Arabic Language or the Egyptian Arabic Language, why not give the Pimsleur method a try? You can listen to sample audios online for free, or you can immedaitely dowload the Pimsleur Arabic audios.
