Say it in Shanghai

May 28, 2010 1:46 AM

Learn a bit of Shanghainese for the World Expo: Say it in Shanghai is a short series of videos from the China Daily newspaper. Very simple, but actually kinda useful and funny. Direct links to lessons: Part one | Part two | Part three | Part four | Part five | Part six.

Thanks jiawen - I've been murdering Mandarin long enough; about time I started mangling another Chinese language too.

If you already speak Mandarin, the fine people over at Popup Chinese has a fun podcast called How to Speak Shanghainese.
