Your emails, your questions, your Mandarin struggles.
In this first Listener Mailbag, we tackle:
• Tone panic ordering 牛肉麵
• How to pronounce 出去 without tripping
• ü vs u, and why “iu” sounds like “yo”
• Zhuyin vs Pinyin — which works in Taiwan
• Why HSK tests don’t prepare you for street speed
• Training your ears to real Mandarin
• Karaoke learning, flashcard guilt, and more
Email your questions to chat@mandarinmonkey.com and we might answer them next time.
