A sad/happy day today. I have decided to stop learning spoken Mandarin. It is just too freaking difficult, and it is literally keeping me awake at night with how difficult it is. I am however still going to stick with learning to read Chinese.
They are connected in the sense of grammar, but I think a testemant (not sure how to spell that word) to how unconnected they are is how well I am doing in one compared to the other.
