I am interested in french language. I know mandarin chinese & english language. I know that learning any language is not easy but I wonder can I study french as my english is not very good. I hope I can study french.

I was wondering if Mandarin Chinese was beneficial for a software engineer.

i m learning mandarin right now and i want to know whether people in China write in pinyin or actual mandarin chinese characters?

I heard before that Mandarin Chinese is the most "spoken" language in the world. Before I heard this, I thought that English held that title. Is Mandarin Chinese just the most common native/first language? Is English the most universally known language?

I don't know exactly what was measured in order to obtain this fact.

Need to choose between learning mandarin chinese and ap world history because of a conflict with my other classes

大家好!!!
Hello everyone! I'm starting my first year of Mandarin Chinese at College.
I love the language, I'm intrigued by the culture and History....I'm in simply in love with it.
My question is, would practicing Chinese conversation 2 or 3 hours a a day everyday improve my pronunciation for the next 3 months?
For the ones who have studied Chinese, how long would it take to acquire and "OK" accent? My mother tongue is Spanish so it helps me to imitate sounds easier.
Any suggestions welcome! And any tutors too!

I already am pretty fluent in Spanish, and when I start college I am interested in pursuing a third language. I hear from some people that mandarin chinese is going to be the next international business language. Then others tell me japanese is more useful. So which is it?

Im looking for a free way through the internet to learn some conversational Mandarin Chinese. Anyone know of any websites?

I'm a beginning student of Mandarin Chinese and am running into a disagreement with a friend over proper pronunciation. I always thought the word hen3 很 rhymes with the English word "fun," with the e pronounced like a deep "uh" in the throat. However my buddy thinks it sounds like the English word "hen." What is the correct way? I'm mainly interested in how it would be properly said in Beijing. Thanks in advance.

I regularly attend retreats and group meditation at a Chan Buddhism retreat center and some of the discussions and literature is written/spoken in mandarin chinese. I would like to learn the language in order to better understand the true meanings of the works we discuss. I have no prior experience other than listening to others speak the language.
