“Chinese internet buzz with all the newest slang.”
John Pasden, ARC (Advanced Readings in Chinese)
“The internet's best way to learn real Chinese as its spoken by Chinese people and used in Chinese media. ”
Jeremy Goldkorn, Rhyming Chaos
“RealTime Mandarin is just the best resource I know of for learning modern Chinese in context: you not only learn new vocab and the mechanics of the language, but get a deeply-informed guide to how it's used in real life. Great way to keep up on new usages, and to keep your finger on the pulse of contemporary China!”
Kaiser Y Kuo, Sinica
