大家好！ 这是吴美美，想探察（explore）各种个样的题目关于学习中文的计策。在这个播客里，我有时候会写中文课的后感（reflection），有时候写会我自己的意见关于中国文化和政治。我希望你们常常看这个播客，告诉我你们同意不同意我的意见! I will attempt to use Chinese frequently in this space, but there will be times when I will hit the language barrier and resort to English to convey my thoughts. Apologies in advance.
我没去过中国，所以我跟中国不太数。我常常在网络上看资料（material）关于中国文化和历史，跟我的朋友们讨论这些题目。这是我第一次在网络上用中文表达我的看法， 我希望这个经验提高我的中文水平，让我更了解中国思想. I really believe that learning a language is one of the most daring things I could do in my lifetime. It is an active decision to engage something completely foreign and embrace the prospect of failure. Error is inevitable, but it also opens the path to learning. I’m sure that you’ll come across mistakes in this blog (if you already haven’t, I would be incredibly impressed) and that’s quite alright – I want to make those mistakes, be comfortable with their existence, correct them, and move on. 我经过这个过程（process）的时候，我希望你们帮助我。
