0:03.9 | if I did a portion of my vows in Mandarin because his family is going to be there. |
0:08.0 | They speak Mandarin and I don't and I've always wanted to be closer to him, |
0:12.2 | to his family, to his culture and Chinese is from my personal opinion. |
0:16.5 | One of the hardest languages to learn ever, but Rosetta Stone has been saving my life. |
0:21.8 | Okay, I tell you. Even for Korean, my fiance is learning Korean right now on Rosetta Stone. |
