STOP PRESS: The book is now available WITH AUDIO FOR IPADS.
The English Mandarin Joke Book is an excellent way for Mandarin speakers to practise their English – and for foreigners who are trying to improve their Mandarin to read some simple (and hilarious) texts. Great jokes like:
“妈妈,我都十六岁了,能戴胸罩吗?”
“不行,大卫。”
or this classic
“我的狗丢了。”
“你应该在报纸上登一则广告啊。”
“太荒唐了!他又不会读。”
I first learnt German by telling jokes to people in my awful German. But I quickly progressed and now I’m pretty fluent – and know lots of great jokes as well. When you’re trying to improve your skills in a foreign language, reading is one of the best ways – and reading jokes is probably the best of all. The best way to use this book is to treat it like a swimming pool on a warm day. Jump in now and again and it’s a very pleasant experience. If you stay in too long you won’t enjoy it as much.
