Shanghainese/Wu Dialect sources?



Hello=Nong hao=**侬好** 


14 million speakers of Shanghainese, but almost no sources to learn to pick up the language or even crossover phrases from the official standard mandarin.


I understand the Chinese government has a vested interest in allowing people to learn mandarin/普通話
but if there are any native speakers or visitors who have known any audio clips, or even work books specifically for Shanghainese, I would be grateful!
I was looking for learning materials myself last year, and I found it extremely difficult to find anything. Nonetheless I'll share my list of links that I have found:

all of the following religions are practiced in china 

1heaven worship 
2 buddhism
3 taoism 
4 islam 
5 christianity 
6 judaism 
7 recent sects 
 .....falun gong 
 ..... way of former heaven

buddhists 8%, with more than 200,000 monks and nuns. this value is seen as extremely low because there are more than 16,000 buddhist temples that do not maintain traditional congregations. 

taoists, unknown as a percentage, there are more than 25,000 taoist monks and nuns at more than 1,500 temples. taoist belief is often intertwined with both buddhism and traditional folk religions. 

muslims, 1.4%, with more than 45,000 imams. other estimates are much higher. 

protestant christians, 1.2% with official churches. it is estimated that another 2.5% of the population is a protestant christian worshipping through an unofficial house church. 

catholic christians, 6% with official churches, and the vatican claims up to another 10% who are catholics attending catholic services at underground churches. 

it should be noted, however, that statistics relating to buddhism and religious taoism are to some degree incomparable with statistics for islam and christianity. this is due to the traditional chinese belief system which blends confucianism, buddhism, and taoism, so that a person who follows a traditional belief system would not necessarily identify him- or herself as either buddhist or taoist, despite regularly attending buddhist or taoist places of worship.

most people report no organized religious affiliation; however, belief in folk traditions and non-religious spiritual beliefs, such as ancestor worship and feng shui, along with informal ties to local temples and unofficial house churches is in the hundreds of millions. can you identify from where in your childhood this people pleasing dynamic stems from?why do you people please?what do you get from it?what might happen if you don't people please?rhetorical questions for self discovery. as my gong fu instructor used to say. 'awareness'. you should watch your inner thought processes and your bodily/feeling reactions, rather than necessarily having to get caught up in them or believing them, or even answering them. once they are watched and the own processes of your consciousness are understood more fully, they will start to lose their grip on you.the other thing worth bearing in mind is people are different in their own moods, feelings, perceptions, their own internal make up - karma - or reaction to things. therefore, they may be reacting in a way that is entirely nothing to do with you. you might also like to watch this video on healthy boundaries if you feel that might be an issue. i don't, they get the silent treatment until i need to talk to them. which is rare first of all learn to spell man
