Don’t worry, there’s probably a tiny ethnolinguistic region of China with an accent that sounds exactly like you’re saying it

Sometimes my Chinese teacher laughs because I say something in a way that sounds extremely like a particular regional accent

Ludwig accidentally pronouncing "Henan" in a perfect Henan accent got me real good.

It has more content than HelloChinese, whose grammar content stops at HSK3/4. But HelloChinese and the public chinesegrammarwiki anki deck are way better suited for beginners I think.

Anyways, when I started last year, speaking was very embarassing so I focused on reading, writing(via keyboard) and listening only. But now I'm confident enough to practice pronunciation, nobody who happen to listen me practicing know chinese anyways.
