Hey Everyone--
I just joined, and I'm glad that I found this website as I much prefer teaching myself languages to learning it in a classroom setting. My current focus is Mandarin, and I attended Princeton University's summer program (in Beijing) this past summer (which is fantastic, in fact). However, the program I am enrolled in currently is intense to the point that I don't sleep more than 3 hours a night, and truly sacrifices good language learning for the sake of appearing intense. Just a month left, and then I'm really excited to use the resources on this site to aid in my own self study for the remaining 6 months I have in Beijing. It's likely that this has been mentioned before, but this is one tool that I have found indispensable to increasing my reading comprehension in Chinese. Pop up translators like this one for google chrome: https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/kkmlkkjojmombglm lpbpapmhcaljjkde/ , or pera pera kun for firefox, make reading online newspapers so much easier. At this point I understand 95% of the content in articles I read online, and having a tool like this makes figuring out that mysterious 5% faster and smoother Edited by russellballard on 04 November 2010 at 8:14am 1 person has voted this message useful |
