Download or read book Hacking Chinese written by Olle Linge and published by . This book was released on 2016-03-26 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learning Chinese can be frustrating and difficult, partly because it's very different from European languages. Following a teacher, textbook or language course is not enough. They show you the characters, words and grammar you need to become proficient in Chinese, but they don't teach you how to learn them! Regardless of what program you're in (if any), you need to take responsibility for your own learning. If you don't, you will miss many important things that aren't included in the course you're taking. If you study on your own, you need to be even more aware of what you need to do, what you're doing at the moment and the difference between them. Here are some of the questions I have asked and have since been asked many times by students: How do I learn characters efficiently? How do I get the most out of my course or teacher? Which are the best learning tools and resources? How can I become fluent in Mandarin? How can I improve my pronunciation? How do I learn successfully on my own? How can I motivate myself to study more? How can I fit learning Chinese into a busy schedule? The answers I've found to these questions and many others form the core of this book. It took eight years of learning, researching, teaching and writing to figure these things out. Not everybody has the time to do that! I can't go back in time and help myself learn in a better way, but I can help you! This book is meant for normal students and independent language learners alike. While it covers all major areas of learning, you won't learn Chinese just by reading this book. It's like when someone on TV teaches you how to cook: you won't get to eat the delicious dish just by watching the program; you have to do the cooking yourself. That's true for this book as well. When you apply what you learn, it will boost your learning, making every hour you spend count for more, but you still have to do the learning yourself. This is what a few readers have said about the book: "The book had me nodding at a heap of things I'd learnt the hard way, wishing I knew them when I started, as well as highlighting areas that I'm currently missing in my study." - Geoff van der Meer, VP engineering "This publication is like a bible for anyone serious about Chinese proficiency. It's easy for anyone to read and written with scientific precision." - Zachary Danz, foreign teacher, children's theatre artist About me I started learning Chinese when I was 23 (that's more than eight years ago now) and have since studied in many different situations, including serious immersion programs abroad, high-intensity programs in Sweden, online courses, as well as on the side while working or studying other things. I have also successfully used my Chinese in a graduate program for teaching Chinese as a second language, taught entirely in Chinese mostly for native speakers (the Graduate Institute for Teaching Chinese as a Second Language at National Taiwan Normal University). All these parts have contributed to my website, Hacking Chinese, where I write regularly about how to learn Mandarin.

This book was released on 2021-06-17 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For most newcomers to Chinese, it is a big challenge to learn enough of Chinese vocabulary. Many of my friends have told me that, when they pick up their Chinese textbook, they feel as if they are knocking onto a "Great-Wall" which they cannot get over. As you know, till now, the Chinese language has been playing its role for over 5,000 years, while many of its companions - by which I mean other ancient languages - had vanished into the river of history. One of the most important elements to support the survival of Chinese language is --- SIMPLICITY. The purpose of creating this book is very simple: to help you to understand the mechanisms and rules of Chinese vocabulary and expand your knowledge of Chinese words faster than you could ever have expected. Of course, everything in this book is based around simplicity and effectiveness - No intricate jargons, No maddening terms, and even No rote memorizations! 對於大多數中文學習者而言，掌握足夠的詞彙是一個巨大的挑戰。很多學習者告訴我，當他們一開始翻開中文課本時，就感覺自己一頭撞在一睹難以逾越的高牆上。 正如大家所知道的，中文已經有5000年的歷史，而歷經歲月磨礪之後，中文仍然存活下來，並且更加生機盎然。實際上，支撐中文存活下來的最為重要的原因之一，其實就是它的"簡單"。 這本書的目的很簡單，就是説明學習者理解中文詞彙系統背後的奧秘，並且幫助他們以前所未有的效率擴充詞彙。這一切是基於輕鬆和有效的基礎之上----沒有難懂的術語，沒有令人抓狂的條文，甚至沒有令人痛苦的死記硬背！ Contents of This Book Chapter 1 Basic Concepts and Background Knowledge 基本概念與背景知識 Chapter 2 Fundamental Mechanism for Word-Building 詞彙構成基本機制 Chapter 3 Basic Principles in Applications 基本應用原則 Chapter 4 Basic Modes in Applications 詞彙基本構成模式 Chapter 5 Word-Building by Combining Nouns 運用名詞組合構成詞彙 Chapter 6 Word-Building by Combining Adjectives 運用形容片語合構成詞彙 Chapter 7 Word-Building by Combining Verbs 運用動詞組合構成詞彙 Chapter 8 Word-Building by Combining Nouns and Adjectives 運用名詞和形容片語合構成詞彙 Chapter 9 Word-Building by Combining Nouns and Verbs (N+V) 運用名詞與動詞組合構成詞彙 (名+動) Chapter 10 Word-Building by Combining Verbs and Nouns (V+N) 運用動詞與名詞組合構成詞彙 (動+名) Chapter 11 Word-Building Related to Adverbs 與副詞相關的構詞模式 Chapter 12 Special Modes for Word-Building 特殊構詞模式 Summary 總結 Epilogue 後記 About the Author Zhou Xiaogeng has been working on research of the Chinese language as well as the development of educational products for more than 20 years.

Download or read book Chinese Vocabulary Builders written by and published by Asiapac Books Pte Ltd. This book was released on 1996 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author, Lin Shan has formulated a logical way of learning the Chinese characters, that is, grouping words having the same "root" and then deriving their meaning by applying 60 basic radicals. Studies have shown that characters with a combination of "radical" and "root" account for 85% of all Chinese characters, either frequently or infrequently used. In this title, the author has listed 60 radicals followed by 200 frequently-used roots.
