After my request for help learning Cantonese, I've got stuck into Mango Languages. I don't think it will still be free for me after 2 weeks but it's a good length for a trial.

My next question is, how does one go about practising tones? Is it mainly listening and recognising the tones that will later help me with speaking?

I'm expecting it to take a long time but that's what I love about learning new things.

Day 33 cont 🗣️🇨🇳

“Foreign Minister #PennyWong (#Labor) is telling voters on #Chinese #SocialMedia apps that the #Liberals are questioning their #loyalty as both sides seek to exploit perceived links to #Beijing while continuing to court the #diaspora vote.

Key marginal seats in #NSW and #Victoria will likely be decided on the Chinese Australian vote, including the north Sydney seat of #Bennelong, where a man who held a senior role in a Chinese government-linked influence association (#CCP) is leading a volunteer group for the Liberal candidate.

Both claims show the difficulty political parties face as they try to win over Chinese Australian voters with a wide array of priorities, manage Australia’s #ComplexRelationship with its largest trading partner, and attack the other side over #NationalSecurity.”

Diversity in action.

How the End of a U.S. Tax Loophole Hurts Chinese Companies

A loophole that has allowed American shoppers to buy lots of cheap goods from mainland China and Hong Kong without paying tariffs and filling customs forms is closing on Friday. Meaghan Tobin, a correspondent for The New York Times covering business in Asia, explains. #U.S #Tax #Loophole #Hurts #Chinese #Companies

@MAKS23 attacking the #ccp #Chinese troops taking part of the parade is a plausible scenario, trying to rally #China to the #nazi #russian cause and also wounding some russian service men to get more to sign up for #smo #war so that even more #warcrimes could be committed against #Ukraine
