The statury of left picture is Lu Xun. He is a famous writer in contemporaneous China. This college is also named from him.

local accent
ShenyangPeter profile photo
ShenyangPeter 14 reviews

People in the northeast usually speak something much closer to "putonghua" than most of the rest of China. Some teachers at my university claim that the perfect Chinese accent is something between the Jilin local accent and the Beijing local accent (and what's in the middle geographically... Shenyang!). Liaoning province has a pretty standard accent in general, but some Shenyang people might be hard to understand. Despite the Shenyang accent (lots of "r's") the accent is usually very clear in comparison to Sichuan or any southern place.

How can you use this? Compliment people on the clear Northeast (dongbei) accent. :)
