Answer Question
Is two months enough time to learn Mandarin for a visit to China?
I used Fluenz Italian very effectively to prepare for a two-week trip a couple of years ago, but I have been speaking French and Spanish for a long time and Italian was fairly easy for me to acquire, at least for the trip. I am leaving for a visit to China in Late August and want to use the Mandarin course to be able to have routine conversations during the trip. I have no background in East Asian languages so I will be starting from scratch with Mandarin.
My question is: Assuming I diligently work through the program starting right now, do I have enough time to get through and actually retain the material in time for my trip? Has anyone else had experience with using the program in the month or two right before a trip?
Thanks,
Behrooz.
