Overview:
Did you know that in Mandarin the word for 'a horse' is spelled the same as 'a mother' as well as 'hemp'. If you want to buy something from a store, you may be telling them you want to sell it instead. The same word for to build also spells to hit. If you are asking out someone's daughter, you may actually be asking out their tender beef. When speaking Mandarin it's all about the tone of your voice. It can mean the difference between saying what you mean, and a very embarrassing situation. In Mandarin this is the most important first step in learning. It is called Pinyin, and it literally means, "spelling sound". This is something that you cannot learn from phrase books, dictionaries or audio books. Speaking the tone incorrectly even the slightest can make it impossible for people to understand you. With Beginner Mandarin, you can fix that.
