    ... Don't really know any working system for people to learn mandarin as second language. I grew up with it for a short while. Now I speak mandarin like a gaijin. Instead of answering my questions people would just ask where I'm from. Assholes.
    I would think the best way is to attend a class to get you started. Like someone mentioned here, you should learn ping Ying, how to pronounced and speak first. Worry about how to say and each character and symbol later. Unlike English, there's no sure way to tell how to pronounce each words just by its structure. Only by memory...
    Good luck.

    P.s. No you can't kidnap me and carry around with you.
