A guy in my office is learning japaneseHis favourite phrases are:
"I don't mind watching, but I prefer not to participate"
and
"Really? I had no idea I was doing anything wrong"
It is his conjecture taht you should be able to survive knowing tehse things alone.

Yeah, sorry, can't help you thereWhat I've learnt has basically been from immersion in the language. I should have learnt more really but I've been busy and haven't had to go off campus very often this semester...and so haven't been immersed

Try the Pimsleur courseIt's bittorrentable and a piece of piss to get into. Otherwise the best two ways are what I've done - a formal course followed by immersion.

Apparentlyits quite hard. I've got a friend who moved to england from hong kong a few years ago, she says she's already forgetting how to speak it (although she was raised english ex pat stylee).
Its all quite tonal, with huge geographical variations as well they tell me.
Maybe you could sign up for a course? Or learn kung fu, thats how I learnt to not be able to say about eight cantonese words...

fu is funyou get to make new friends and learn how to break their arms & legs and choke them to death. Plus if you go long enough you get a snazzy belt

That doesn't surprise me.I'm surprsed she could speak ANY Cantonese. Hong Kong expats are, by and large, cunts. There are some exceptions, but the majority are arrogant fuckwits.
Tones are important, but in my experience well overemphasized. Geographic variations within any given Chinese language are minimal - biggest you'll get would be Beijing Mandarin vesus Taiwanese Mandarin. The languages themselves vary immensely and are mutually unintelligible. OP'd have to find out from the wife which language to study.

They're actually very nicequite down to earth and all that. Although she did say that Hong Konglians have issues with the mainlanders.
They also said that apparently the writeen language is the same, but people speak it differently or something. I don't really understand it to be honest.
