The Chinese language is considered one of the most difficult languages for Westerners to learn. This consensus comes from people in many different countries. Even the French have a saying, C'est du chinois which means It's Chinese and implies that Chinese is quite difficult to understand.

Chinese is a difficult language for several reasons. The first reason is that there is no alphabet in Chinese. Many languages, including Spanish, French, and German, have an alphabet. When the learner comes from a native background that utilizes an alphabet, learning Chinese poses some new challenges that can be difficult to get used to.

Another reason Chinese is difficult to learn is the writing system. The Chinese written language is highly complex and unique, while offering language learners several challenges. The written language is based on Chinese characters which can be most difficult to learn and become literate. This difficulty is very evident in learning to write Chinese characters.

Chinese audio clips can help improve learning. These Chinese audio clips are recorded readings of various texts from authentic Chinese ...
... literature. The audio clips are read by two native Chinese speakers, one female and one male.

Chinese audio clips will help language learners increase their understanding of Chinese. These audio tapes should be played while reading the Chinese stories. Language learning is often improved by reading and listening at the same time which is why these audio files are so helpful.

A reader of Chinese can follow along in the text while listening to a native speaker reading it. The first time one listens to the text may not be terribly beneficial. However, over time and with repeated use a connection between the written language and the oral language will be made. The oral recitation of the language will help a language learner begin to identify Chinese characters.

Chinese audio files will help a language learner better understand the Chinese text while making connections with the oral and written word.
