你们好！我是意大利人不过我很喜欢中文和英语！昨天找到这么website的时候我真的吃惊了！这个为了提高中文和英语是真有用的方法！

Hi everybody! I'm 26 italian guy but I love chinese and english (and japanese language too)... so yesterday I found this web site and wow! I'm still very impressed! I really think that in this way it'll be possible to improve english and mandarin..

p.s. I have a degree in japanese and chinese so if you're interested to language study's suggestions, feel free to ask me! 如果关于外国语有什么问题尽管问我吧！

だれか日本語も読めるかも！もし日本語と中国語に興味がある人がいったら友達になればどう思う？

For one year, your English is very good.  Anyone, even the ones that speak English, sometimes will have a grammar issue.  Even me :o).  For being self taught I think you are doing outstanding.  A lot more than where I have come as far as learning Arabic.  I have lived in Lebanon three years and I can barely understand complex conversations.  There are so many dialects and that poses an issue for me.

For Chinese, I am a bit slow to learn but I am trying.   I love the Chinese Language and will soon study in China.  I will major in Chinese Studies and minor in Chinese Language so I hope to get a bit of a head start by coming here to Chinese Pod.  It's a great site and if people walk away from it learning more than Chinese, that is even more beneficial.  If anyone needs help with English, let me know, I am willing to help you when I have time.  I would like the extra help with Mandarin in way of how to study it more consistently.

By the way, which is the official language of China at the UN?
