Wo Sher tong xing lian!

That's about the only thing I've learned in Chinese...

I wish my friends would tell me what I means.

I know it means, I am ___________

Of course. He said "wo sher" = I am.

I dunno what "tong xing lian" means.

Seems to me the way they say "to be" does sound like "sher" though. Not exactly but hearing it all the time, well you know what I'm saying.

Ah, clicked old gil's link, dumb me. haha

I spent half my holiday in China learning how to say 'Hello'. I was saying it, but the Chinese weren't understanding me properly.

I'm not a big fan of tonal languages, particularly if you want to learn them by yourself.
