Including all expenses roughly how much will it cost? Also how easy is it to get scholarships and how much will they lower the cost? I am planning on going for a semester or a summer and I'm currently in Canada. Finally I have a 86 average atm in grade 10, but I'm hoping to get it to 90 by the end of the year (only done half my courses) thanks!

4 AnswersChina1 decade agoEasy buckethead songs to play?
I'm going to play guitar for a concert in a few weeks and I need some awesome buckethead songs to play, however I'm not the best guitarist so all of his great song are too hard. Right now I can play the redeem team and sail on soothsayer so similar difficulty songs would be great. Also Id prefer more upbeat songs (as opposed to his Colma album for example) thanks!
2 AnswersRock and Pop1 decade agoHow do I be a faster guitar player?
I have been playing guitar for 4 years now and yet I'm still now very fast. I mostly play lead yet I can't achieve the fast speeds necessary for many songs. I've timed myself play some riffs and I can only achieve a max of 8-10 notes per second on riffs I know well. I've tried everything from doing scales everyday to just playing songs and it seems in the last couple years my speed hasn't improved at all. Does anybody have ant suggestions? I want to be able to play about twice as fast, that's my goal anyways even if it takes a few years (btw I play anywhere from 1-4hours a day :(
thanks!
10 AnswersRock and Pop1 decade agoI want to become great at Cantonese?
Hi there! I am currently starting my long journey to learning Cantonese. I hope to be able to have a conversation in Cantonese with my friends by the end of this. I need help gaining software to learn this language. I'm currently finishing the pimsluer course, and plan to move on to a podcast by RTHK that has 180 5-20minute long lessons, and I will use the FSI course after that. Finally I will use Eurotalk's computer software to add some basic vocabulary. Do you have any suggestions for other methods I should use, or any insight on whether the above mentioned programs are any good (ie. Good pronounciation, current language etc.) I'd prefer to spend as little as I can, but buying a simple $20 workbook I would be ok with if you think it would help. Finally I'm more interested in the spoken language atm.
Thank you very much!!
1 AnswerLanguages1 decade agoConfused about Cantonese language tones?
This is a two part question. 1. I heard there are 6 tones: low falling, low, low rising, mid, mid rising, high (and the vanishing high falling) however I am learning Cantonese and some words have a mid falling tone. (I don't know proper romanization but here's how I think they're spelled with roman characters) will you eat lunch with me? Ne seurng m suerng tong ngo sik naan? The word tong (with) has a mid falling tone. Next: water please soeu m goui the m in please has a mid falling tone. Is my language software wrong (pimsluers) or am I missing something?
Question 2: If I spoke every word with the same tone, or the wrong tone would I still be understood?or would they think it's jibberish?
Thanks!

2 AnswersLanguages1 decade agoCan I learn basic mandarin after basic Cantonese?
Hi! I'm a native English speaker, and I only speak English and some French (since I'm in Canada). I have started to use Pimsleurs Cantonese learning software because i want to learn Cantonese. Perhaps when I complete it (12/30 lessons done) I will take classes to improve my learning. I know people who speak Cantonese (however I'm not Chinese so my family doesn't) so I'd like to learn it. However I'd also like to learn mandarin since it's the official language of china, and has 800 million (about?) speakers worldwide. Would I confuse my Cantonese if after this pimsleurs, I did the 100 lesson mandarin one? Also could I continue to learn Cantonese at the same time I do the mandarin lessons? I'm not to worried about the writing system, tho learning mandarin for pinyan would be very useful, Id much rather learn for the speaking aspect. Thanks for your help!!!!
