I've decided to start learning Chinese and wonder if anyone knows any good web resources or other good methods to get started? If I remember correctly, I've read about other people learning Chinese around here..
And if all goes well, I'll go to Taiwan on a scholarship next summer So..any suggestions?
Maybe this topic is too serious for the cor, but hey.. maybe someone can answer

Lesson one... Chinese is not a language. If you're likely to go to Taiwan I suggest you learn Mandarin and/or Taiwanise.

ya rly...
Chinese is a nationality and a language family but not a single language. The Chinese languages are; Mandarin, Wu, Cantonese, Min, Xiang, Hakka, and Gan. Most Chinese people speak Mandarin or Cantonese.

Sensitive lot. Rosettastone offers Mandarin, hence the linkage.

I use and recommend using Rosetta Stone. Being able to repeatedly hear the sounds is paramount. The speaking portion of their program is buggy though. I'm Chinese and still fail.
So..any suggestions?
