Totally and utterly useless and incomprehensible

This is not suitable for learning. It is a series of phrases spoken in English, then Mandarin. They are unrelated, so there is no logic to the sequence. The sentences don't even start shorter. You leap straight into lengthy sentences. I couldn't remember the words by the end of the sentence, let alone pronounce them properly. There is no build-up, no explanation, just phrase after unrelated phrase. It is impossible to learn a single thing in this manner. I can't even remember '1, 2, 3' and that was the easiest one.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
