Beijing Dialect!

[Jonathan Nelson]

I was taught Beijing dialect and many words and expressions are different in Northern Mandarin. I would pay anything for something that had a native Beijing speaker go over every single word/expression and give the specific Beijing equivalent (expression) and pronunciation (alternate) etc. I have purchased most of the products (including the professional bundle + about $75 more)....I would literally pay what I paid for all the other stuff combined if I could get a high-quality Beijing dialect translator! Please! oh please please please. Thanks.

Thanks.

Are you noticing a lot of cases where we don't cover Beijing dialect well now? In general we were under the impression that we had fairly good Beijing dialect coverage as-is (many of our dictionaries are developed in Beijing); also, our Mandarin audio recordings were made by two Beijing speakers, though they were attempting (mostly successfully) to adopt neutral accents for the purposes of the recordings.
