thanks Robert, I appreciate your input to my question.I have the luxury to study almost everyday and watch some you tube tv or movies to break it up alittle.i agree the sentences are not translated in the same order as I read it in English.I just try to hear words I am studying.I work for a Chinese company as their private chauffeur,so when I am not driving I am learning my new language at a pace a turtle would admire.I do get bored rather quick sometimes, but this learning a Chinese language is a win win and I am not pressured to learn it yesterday.I respect everyones input about learning a new language.I guess watching a movie does help me through a long day unless I am out driving.its all good I suppose.
watching movies?
