Wo zai zher

我在這兒

"I located here" is the transliteration of this. But its how you would say it.

In simplified Chinese (used in Shaolin temple) it's 我在这儿 or 我在那儿.
You have a nice audio Chinese dictionary (http://www.chinese-tools.com/tools/dictionary.html)!
Pronunciation is something like "wo dzie jer".

[Wuming]

我在那儿.
This means "I am there"

我在这儿
This is the correct translation (in simplified Chinese characters)

[daftyman]

我在那儿.
This means "I am there"

我在这儿
This is the correct translation (in simplified Chinese characters)

If Nar has the third tone then it's Where am I?

There's part of me that wants to stick with the trad. characters, but only doing the audio at the mo.

For it to mean "where am I", the 那儿 should have the radical "kou" (mouth;to indicate a question and make it the third tone. As Hamihaha wrote it, it means "I am there". Sorry, I can't type Chinese on my computer, just copy and paste!). Anyway, the original question "I am here" is definitely 我在这儿.

I got the info from this site:

But I see that it's wrong when I checked my Langedscheidt dictionary. I'm still just studying the audio side of things and using pinyin, will start on the script soon though. Cheers for the info

nar in the third tone with the radical attached.

You can try this Chinese annotation (http://www.chinese-tools.com/tools/annotation.html) tool as well.
How long have you been learning Chinese?

I guess since about January (Yi Yue). Someone gave me a copy of the Pimsleur course and I am at lesson 21 of stage 3, so wondering what I'm going to do next.

Got my eye on this:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Reading-Writing-Chinese-Guide-System/dp/0804832064/ref=wl_it_dp/202-2080194-3467068?ie=UTF8&coliid=I15LIKPRSHRMVJ&colid=336LOLS7HKYPO

Had a look at it in Waterstones, looked pretty good, then after that I'll transcribe the Pimsleur stuff and then figure where to go from there.

I've enjoyed the Pimsleur course. Not big on vocabulary, more the tools and grammar. The vocab will come soon enough I reckon. Want to learn the calligraphy too and I want to stay with the traditional script as that's what I see in my old taiji books, plus I think it looks better.

I should probably try to find a proper course somewhere nearby to really get to grips with this though.
