#5 Post at 26-3-2010 16:42  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L I tend to visit girls even they don't speak any english at all. In my opinion, it's really not a problem if sex is the topic. The body language can do the trick. I know some basic cantonese. I guess just asking for the price, her name, age is sufficient enough.

I'm sure nobody knows what the stats are, bro, but I can say that dealing with agents and WGs has done more for my proficiency in both dialects over the past two years than the expensive lessons the company is providing at the moment. The teacher who comes to our office twice a week keeps remarking that I seem to be getting in more practise than any of my colleagues with the PTH and I just smile and tell him I talk to 'tourists'. I would never tell him what kind of tourists I've been chatting with! I have a great little English to PTH dictionary and and have learned useful words and phrases that the teacher doesn't have on his agenda like "wo-men tui yifu, hao bu hao" which means "let's get undressed, OK?" That phrase is not going to appear in the office curriculum until pigs learn how to fly! LOL

#10 Post at 26-3-2010 18:57  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L Reply #2 lean9088's post Not true, bro.  There are plenty of bros here who speak Canto and/or Mandarin (putonghua).  The key is that English is prob more convenient if not a first language for the rest here.  There are also some bros who also come over to benefit from both the English and Chinese forums. In any case, the common answer that you'll get is that you only need body language with a WG.  Don't worry if you can't whisper sweet nothings to the lass.

#14 Post at 26-3-2010 23:59  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L I speak Cantonese fluently, speak Mandarin like a kindergartener, and with help from a dictionary can read Chinese pretty well.  Much better at reading traditional characters as opposed to the Communist characters. Reading the Chinese forum here poses an extra challenge, or some might call it fun, in that a lot of the language is pretty deep slang.    Obviously, English is my first language.  90% of the girls I do in the US don't speak any English, so I've had plenty of practice already.

I have started travelling regularly in mainland China recently and I agree you don't have to get far off the beaten track before things get really hard without Mandarin. So I've bitten the bullet and started taking lessons. I am enjoying learning this language, but for me it's all very strange and I am making very slow progress. I did not expect to be able to learn to read Chinese, but I'm starting to learn a bit of reading and writing as well. An invaluable book is the Oxford Beginner's Chinese Dictionary - it not only gives words, it also contais useful phrases and  explains some of the grammar as well. An excellent web site is www.yellowbridge.com. I have yet to try out my Mandarin withn a WG, but will post a report when I pluck up the courage to do this!
