加油 ! (Jiā Yóu - Chinese for "Go for it"!)
Language experts agree that the best way to learn a new language is to use it in everyday practice. Surfing Chinese web sites provides an excellent environment for immersion, but the difficulty of learning thousands of chinese characters makes reading more difficult than speaking for beginner-level Chinese learners. PinyinBrowser™ enables you to link your study of Chinese characters to your study of Chinese speech.
"If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head.
If you talk to him in his own language, that goes to his heart."
- Nelson Mandela
