January 21st, 2011 - By Veronica Wells

One thing the littlest Obama is not, is shy. Nine year old, Sasha Obama, who has been studying Chinese in school, realized she had the perfect opportunity to practice her skills… with Chinese president Hu Jintao.

Sasha spoke with Jintao during his welcoming ceremony on the White House lawn Wednesday when he and her father went over to greet Sasha and her friends.

    I'm so PROUD to here this. I'm 31 and learning a foreign language, FRENCH. The process is really a commitment. I can't wait to practice w/members of my family & when I travel internationally.

    I have learned over the years, that any attempt that you make to converse with a person in their native language is appreciated.The Obama's daughter did well by talking to President Jintao.. I am sure that she was polite and respectful.

      I have learned this, as well. People absolutely love it when you at least make the effort.
