What is the hardest challenge youve faced as a student of the Chinese language?
You can work hard on your grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation, but being able to communicate naturally isnt easy.
In fact, the toughest part of learning Chinese is knowing how to speak like a native. Most textbooks are made to teach you the traditional rules and structures of a language and are great for getting around the grammar and spelling questions you may have.
However, how many of them provide you the tools necessary to have a common conversation with a best friend or someone youve just met? Not many at all.
Language learners often complain about this - a lack of material that can help you familiarize yourself with the most common phrases used in everyday conversation and in native surroundings.
