How to learn mandarin

I came through this on the internet, it's about an American's note in a mandarin class.

I can say that his or her method of "memorizing" the mandarin words is damn funny.


The note goes like this:


Dear Tim,


shall by too dull doll by too jack won,


dolphin long can Jim shall by too low,


shall by too when dull low, doll car low,


dolphin long doll Ham Eason


“more power!”



Here's the original mandarin version:


第二题


小白兔到大白兔家玩,


大灰狼看见小白兔了,


小白兔闻到了,逃开了,


大灰狼大喊一声


“莫跑!”


I don't know what to say, really.
