mystsaphyr Posted March 18, 2008 at 06:20 PM Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 at 06:20 PM Okay, this might sound really weird, but I've been online to find a certain phrase needed for a yearbook page I am working on. The page is on our school's foreign languages, and one such language is, well, Mandarin Chinese. I'm not currently in this class (although I hope to take it next year) The phrase I need translated is "I speak a foreign language." I'd like it in pinyin (Is that the right word?) if possible..? Sorry for sounding so clueless, it's just that I've been trying to find this for a while. I don't know anyone in the Chinese class at my school, and as it's our spring break, I can't really find anyone to help me, so I've been searching online. And this website seemed the best resource. Thanks so much! ~Katie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nork02 Posted March 19, 2008 at 03:03 PM Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 at 03:03 PM Wǒ jiǎng wàiyǔ/wǒ shuō wàiyǔ The same of Marty but in pinyin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monto Posted March 19, 2008 at 03:28 PM Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 at 03:28 PM Is that simple? When you say "Wǒ jiǎng wàiyǔ/wǒ shuō wàiyǔ" to someone understand it, you are not speaking any foreign language at all. But to those don't, meaningful?
