user experience
Beijing - user Carla Bockling - 05/07/2007

Also we learned to count from 1 to 20, cause you can hear the pronunciation out of the loudspeaker we were able to do this. In the end we could even speak/order things in Chinese. Our guide asked if there was a version for Chinese people to learn Dutch or other languages!
