A Laowai’s Guide to Chinese
I spent a semester studying Mandarin and international communication at Nanjing University. Living in Nanjing was a great experience for me, and being able to interact with Chinese people on a daily basis vastly improved my language skills. While my experience in the classroom was valuable for learning how to write characters, I found myself learning a lot more about the language from my Chinese friends I made during the semester. I put together a guide to colloquial Mandarin I picked up and sent it to a few friends, calling it "A Laowai's Guide to Chinese." This could be useful if you are trying to teach yourself Chinese or are learning from abroad and want to be able to sound more local. So here is a compressed, 10 word version, of "A Laowai's Guide to Chinese."

The Usage of Pinyin
Pinyin is adopted and used by all over the world nowadays. It superseded older romanization systems like Wade-Giles (1859; modified 1892) and Chinese Postal Map Romanization, and replaced zhuyin as the way of Chinese phonetic instruction in mainland China. The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) adopted pinyin as the standard romanization for contemporary Chinese in 1982 (ISO 7098:1982, superseded by ISO 7098:1991); the United Nations followed suit in 1986. The government of Singapore also accepted this system, as well as the United States' Library of Congress, the American Library Association, and many other international institutions.
