This is my recording I HAVE A DREAM

I read it. I've no idea about of my pronunciation. Is that weird?

An excellent speech and good pronunciation. I hope to someday speak Mandarin as well as you have learned to speak English.

Rabbit, have you ever been to Hong-Kong? If I learned Mandarin would I be able to communicate there? I remember your advice of learning pin yin but being that my understanding of the language is so basic I don't quite see how that would apply to speech.

Are Mandarin and Cantonese very close? can you understand Cantonese?

That is a very good speech and even though most of Dr Martin Luther Kings dream came true in such a short time, there is a long way to go.

Most people in Hong-Kong understand both mandarin and English, if you speek slowly. Do you understand British English, that's just like the Cantonese to me! Hong-Kong people are highly educated, you don't need to worry about communication.

I loved your reading! You did a wonderful job with pronunciation. I had chills as I heard you, a Chinese man, reading the speech which is so central to America's history and culture. You have managed to give the speech new meaning, simply by speaking it. Thank you.

I say for an intermediate English learner its good. some of your pronunciation is still a bit off but that can greatly improve with more practice :) keep at it, you are getting better and better.

Hey I'm also going to add a link to your account on my site, is that OK?
