I’m studying Mandarin too, and in the beginning of my studies, I didn’t know there was a writing system called pinyin. I speak the Kaiping dialect which is one of the varieties of the Yue dialects. I understand Cantonese, but Mandarin is like a whole new language for me.

This article speaks to me, and it’s so much fun learning about the Chinese language. Thank you so much for writing this blog post!!💖
