Language Taster Session: Shanghainese

Venue Parkinson Building SR 2.29
Starts Wed 11 Mar 2:00PM
End Wed 11 Mar 3:00PM

Join us for a friendly introduction to Shanghainese, also known as the Wu dialect, and the cultural heritage of Shanghai. In this interactive session, you’ll learn a few everyday phrases, hear the dialect from a fluent speaker, and explore why Shanghainese remains an important part of the city’s identity. As Shanghai has grown into a global metropolis, everyday use of the dialect has declined, especially among younger generations. This event invites anyone who is curious about regional languages to experience and help preserve this unique tradition. Come connect with others and discover Shanghai through its local language.
