Learn Taiwanese Mandarin

Learn Taiwanese Mandarin is a podcast aimed at intermediate to advanced learners.It’s all in Chinese(from the 4th episode), and if there are advanced words, I will explain them using slower and easier Chinese words and sentences! You will also learn some culture knowledge about Taiwan. With more episodes coming out, I'll also teach you some useful Taiwanese/Hokkien. 跟我一起用中文學習中文吧！Website: https://lear-taiwanese-mandarin.webnode.tw/（Icon made by Freepik from www.flaticon.com)
