The ideographic associations, the author believes, constitute a powerful learning aid which can shorten the time taken to familiarize oneself with these three hundred ancient characters from a period of several months of study to a period of less than 24 hours intense exploration. The explanations given are not explanations of characters as symbols, but plausible ideographic associations of the character's visual form with the popular meaning the character has in current usage. Further, it is for the first time in recorded history that it is being demonstrated the possibility that all Chinese characters can be understood as pure ideographs.

Download or read book Remembering Simplified Hanzi 1 written by James W. Heisig and published by . This book was released on 2008-10-31 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The approach that has helped thousands of learners memorize Japanese kanji has been adapted to help students with Chinese characters. Remembering Simplified Hanzi covers the writing and meaning of the 1,000 most commonly used characters in the traditional Chinese writing system, plus another 500 that are best learned at an early stage." "Of critical importance to the approach found in these pages is the systematic arranging of characters in an order best suited to memory. In the Chinese writing system, strokes and simple components are nested within relatively simple characters, which can, in turn, serve as parts of more complicated characters and so on. Taking advantage of this allows a logical ordering, making it possible for students to approach most new characters with prior knowledge that can greatly facilitate the learning process."--BOOK JACKET.
