In the US, about 400,000 students are learning Chinese. Chinese is getting more and more popular there.
Murray is one of the Chinese learners. He became interested in Chinese tea culture when he was 12 years old. To learn more about tea and find the best tea, he started to learn Chinese.
Murray spent two years learning Chinese at the University of Pittsburgh." Those two years of study life were very busy," he said. He went to a class at 8 a. m. on weekdays. All students needed to speak Chinese in class. Every Monday and Wednesday he went to a grammar class at 2 p. m. For Murray, Chinese grammar is easy because the Chinese language has no tense(时态). But the pronunciation is really a hard part of the language. To improve it, Murray needed to practice Chinese four tones(声调) every day.
