Chinese course

学一门语言,就是多一个观察世界的窗户。

(xué yì mén yǔyán, jiù shì duō yí ge guānchá shìjiè de chuānghu.)

To learn a language is to have one more window from which to look at the world.

Why learn Chinese? There are many reasons! First of all, Chinese is the language of almost 1/4 of the world's population. Chinese speakers not only live in China, Taiwan and Singapore, but also spread all over Southeast Asia, North America and Europe where large Chinese communities were formed. Chinese people play an increasingly important role all over the world.

Learning Chinese is an extraordinary and enjoyable experience through which you can immerse yourself in a different culture. Unlike most languages, Chinese has a unique ideographic writing system, which provides visual comprehension. The grammatical structure of the Chinese language is not only logical, but also pragmatic, related to the particular way of Chinese thinking. Knowledge of the written language opens up the culture of one of the oldest civilizations in the world.

Traditional Chinese culture - from Confucianism and Chan Buddhism to martial arts and Chinese cuisine - has an enormous influence on the nations of East and Southeast Asia.Chinese culture has also greatly inspired the Western world through Marco Polo, Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, Max Weber, Franz Kafka, André Malraux, Bertolt Brecht, Ezra Pound, and Luis Borges, among others.

Not least, the People's Republic of China, currently boasts the fastest growing economy in the world and is widely considered the world's largest potential market in the 21st century. People who know Mandarin Chinese find jobs in a variety of fields related to business, government, international relations, information technology, tourism, education, translation and much, much more. Of all the foreign languages in universities and colleges, Chinese shows the largest proportional increase in enrollment.
