		<description>One of the general problems here is the people reduce the &quot;sh&quot; sound to a &quot;s&quot; sound. Then they don&#039;t distinct between &quot;ng&quot; and &quot;n&quot; endings, both are the same here. The &quot;ou&quot; sound once in a while shifts to &quot;e&quot;.

Apart from that some of the words are different than in putonghua, but I don&#039;t want to learn the local words for the moment. I have to learn a serious amount of words in putonghua first. I really don&#039;t want to mix this up for now.</description>

		<description>Well now you have see that every region speak chinese a little bit different, sometime as you said will be difficult to understand them, the region speak clearly Chinese are only in the big city like Beijing and Shanghai, that&#039;s all. Well anyway try hard, I think in couple month you will be possible to understand them.

See you, Henrik</description>
