Esina,
Make sure you are able to tell the difference between Mandarin and Cantonese or other Chinese dialects?

Hello Esina,

你好“爱丝耐”

Kevin is right, Cantonnese is very different from Manderin. But if they are or understan Manderin you could ask:
====== qing wen4 ni3 hui4 bu4 hui4 bu3 tong1 hua4 请问你会不会说普通话 Excuse me do you speak Manderin ni3 ke3 yi4 bu4 ke3 yi4 jiao4 wo4 bu3 tong1 hua4 你可以不可以教我普通话 Can you teach me Manderin.. ======

万事如意
