“Language is the road map of a culture. It tells you where its people come from and what they believe. The beauty of language lies in its power to evoke images and emotions, transcend barriers, and connect souls across cultures and generations. Learning Chinese is like opening a window from which to look at the Chinese people and their 3700-year history and culture.”
