In fact, as I have now learned, the Beijing language, Beijinghua, is very standard, quite similar to the main Chinese dialect, Mandarin.

事实上，北京话还是非常标准的，非常接近中国的普通话。

I miss being surrounded by beijinghua thoughthese days that's rarely even thecase in Beijing anymore, and in any event I'm still pretty immersed inChinese back here in the States.

我想念被周围北京话坏绕的感觉——虽然这种情况即使现在在北京也很难得，我一有机会还是沉浸在中文里，即便我已经回了美国。
