Learn Mandarin and Cantonese

Go to this site and download the FSI Standard Chinese (Mandarin) course:http://fsi-language-courses.com/StandardChinese.aspx Many American universities have used this course for teaching Chinese.It's put out by the Foreign Service Institute, originally to teach US Diplomatic Corps personnel. Because it was written by the US government there is supposedly no copyright on the material so many different publishers have put out versions of the material. Now a guy has put all the stuff on the Internet.There are many other languages available as well as for the Cantonese dialect:http://fsi-language-courses.com/CantoneseBasic.aspx Put the audio on your mp3 player and enjoy the pleasures of learning another dialect or language.Learn the language of your ancestors!
