These conversation post have all been tagged with " group"
I just moved to Austin from the San Francisco Bay Area. I have studied Chinese for four and a half years and lived in China for about a year in various places. While there are people who do speak Chinese here, I think it would be great to increase the number of opportunities to speak and learn the language. After all, listening to Cpod and Cpop only gets you so far. Let's hit up some hip cafes, study, speak and have fun.
If you are a Twitter user then this is the place to share your experiences, ideas and suggestions for using Twitter to increase learning and understanding of a new language and culture.
Or, just shamelessly list your account here in the hope that it will increase your following ;)

I noticed after all this time, I have been the only one to start posts in this group. Does that mean that other people can't start posts?
I am starting my own traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) practice, so I'm going to be busy with that for a little while. I am hoping some people can ask questions or post their own material regarding TCM terms.
Here's something to get started: What are the characters and tones for Xiao Ke and what does it mean?
Anybody out there from the East Midlands, UK, who fancies getting together to speak Chinese? A bunch of us learners and a few Chinese speaker friends from the Leicester/De Montfort Uni Languages@Leicester Chinese classes have decided to organise an informal meet-up group to get together and practice spoken Chinese.
We thought about going with meetup.com, but it's a bit pricey. So I've set up a site called ZhongWenLeicester.org. It's fairly basic, and you need to sign up (it's free, and run on a volutnary basis - and always will be) - but it's a way of making connections locally so that we can get together.
PM me, or contact me thorugh ZhongWenLeicester if you want to join us. Our first meeting will, naturally enough, be in the Phoenix cafe/bar in a couple of weeks' time.
