    Creating a Mandarin-learning routine for myself

    Not easy when your brain rebels at the thought of routines and quickly forgets them. But I'm going to focus on one tiny thing at the time and adjust as I go along. This post is part 1 of a series of logs of the process.

      @yingtai I don't know how good my foundation is. All I know is that when I speak it, I fool native speakers into thinking I'm one of them hahaha.
      I think I'm just good at accents in general. Even my Malay accent can be close to a native speaker's, and I can put on an American accent if need be lol.

      @liztai it's always interesting to hear what your experience learning Mandarin is like, because mine is so similar and yet so different. We're both heritage learners in Southeast Asia, and we're both trying to level up to HSK4.

      But you have a great foundation in speaking Mandarin. I sound like a 3-year-old! I did calligraphy and Mandarin in school, so I can copy beautifully. But I did the bare minimum for school, so I can't read the newspaper even at my snail's speed.

      @liztai Best language learning advice: find yourself a speaking partner. A native Mandarin speaker who wants to improve their English/Hokkien. Speak with them for an hour each week over Zoom, half an hour in each language.

      I’ve been doing this for more than a year to improve my French, and am delighted with my progress!
