Download or read book Remembering Simplified Hanzi 1 written by James W. Heisig and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2008-10-31 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At long last the approach that has helped thousands of learners memorize Japanese kanji has been adapted to help students with Chinese characters. Book 1 of Remembering Simplified Hanzi covers the writing and meaning of the 1,000 most commonly used characters in the simplified Chinese writing system, plus another 500 that are best learned at an early stage. (Book 2 adds another 1,500 characters for a total of 3,000.) Of critical importance to the approach found in these pages is the systematic arranging of characters in an order best suited to memorization. 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. Guidance and detailed instructions are provided along the way. Students are taught to employ "imaginative memory" to associate each character’s component parts, or "primitive elements," with one another and with a key word that has been carefully selected to represent an important meaning of the character. This is accomplished through the creation of a "story" that engagingly ties the primitive elements and key word together. In this way, the collections of dots, strokes, and components that make up the characters are associated in memorable fashion, dramatically shortening the time required for learning and helping to prevent characters from slipping out of memory.

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.

Download or read book The Seventh Day written by Yu Hua and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2015-01-13 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the acclaimed author of Brothers and To Live: a major new novel that limns the joys and sorrows of life in contemporary China. Yang Fei was born on a moving train. Lost by his mother, adopted by a young switchman, raised with simplicity and love, he is utterly unprepared for the tempestuous changes that await him and his country. As a young man, he searches for a place to belong in a nation that is ceaselessly reinventing itself, but he remains on the edges of society. At age forty-one, he meets an accidental and unceremonious death. Lacking the money for a burial plot, he must roam the afterworld aimlessly, without rest. Over the course of seven days, he encounters the souls of the people he’s lost. As Yang Fei retraces the path of his life, we meet an extraordinary cast of characters: his adoptive father, his beautiful ex-wife, his neighbors who perished in the demolition of their homes. Traveling on, he sees that the afterworld encompasses all the casualties of today’s China—the organ sellers, the young suicides, the innocent convicts—as well as the hope for a better life to come. Yang Fei’s passage maps the contours of this vast nation—its absurdities, its sorrows, and its soul. Vivid, urgent, and panoramic, The Seventh Day affirms Yu Hua’s place as the standard-bearer of modern Chinese fiction.
Download or read book Remembering the Kanji 2 written by James W. Heisig and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2012-04-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the first volume of Remembering the Kanji, the present work provides students with helpful tools for learning the pronunciation of the kanji. Behind the notorious inconsistencies in the way the Japanese language has come to pronounce the characters it received from China lie several coherent patterns. Identifying these patterns and arranging them in logical order can reduce dramatically the amount of time spent in the brute memorization of sounds unrelated to written forms. Many of the “primitive elements,” or building blocks, used in the drawing of the characters also serve to indicate the “Chinese reading” that particular kanji use, chiefly in compound terms. By learning one of the kanji that uses such a “signal primitive,” one can learn the entire group at the same time. In this way, Remembering the Kanji 2 lays out the varieties of phonetic pattern and offers helpful hints for learning readings, that might otherwise appear completely random, in an efficient and rational way. Individual frames cross-reference the kanji to alternate readings and to the frame in volume 1 in which the meaning and writing of the kanji was first introduced. A parallel system of pronouncing the kanji, their “Japanese readings,” uses native Japanese words assigned to particular Chinese characters. Although these are more easily learned because of the association of the meaning to a single word, the author creates a kind of phonetic alphabet of single syllable words, each connected to a simple Japanese word, and shows how they can be combined to help memorize particularly troublesome vocabulary. The 4th edition has been updated to include the 196 new kanji approved by the government in 2010 as “general-use” kanji.

Download or read book Classified Situational Chinese Vocabulary Camping Version 2020 3rd Edition written by DAVID YAO and published by Legoo Mandarin. This book was released on 2020-11-16 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The classification of the level of difficulty: we classify the vocabulary into 6 levels according HSK (Chinese Proficiency Test) levels. This is done by referencing to our frequency of Chinese Characters' usage, HSK vocabulary and our experience. This small improvement has significant implications. Situational classification: We classified the most common vocabulary into 50 categories according to situational daily usage. This classification will enable the beginner to improve their vocabulary in the short time according the situational need. It will also help a lot for student to do revision. Some students call them as “LIFESAVING" book before their examinations. In order to illustrate how to some hard vocabularies, we also give the situational sentences and conversations to improve student understanding. Camping: we group the same topic vocabulary together, like camping which allow you to focus on improving specific topic in short time. This is very helpful when you are writing an article or preparing a speaking, like IGCSE's role play. This idea is similar to my advisor 张田若 “集中识字，分类习作，大量阅读” thought. The differences are I am focusing on vocabulary (phrase) instead of Characters, classified by HSK level and expanded by topics, targeting at speaking correct Chinese sentence instead of write the good article, which is the challenging task for non-mandarin speaker. The significance of classify the vocabulary into 6 levels according HSK. For us as editors and teacher to prepare the articles, we can give the right article to right students, not too hard or too easy by referring to the levels. We can improve their study step by step. We set the reachable bar, not too low or high, which is encouraging rather discouraging. For students, the classification of level of difficulty will enable the learner to differentiate the phrases you must know how to write and the phrases that you need to read only. You can evaluate your progress by referring to the levels. It is benchmarking. Furthermore, we encourage students to expand vocabulary to higher level and consolidate the vocabulary in the lower level. For example, you are student in final stage preparing IGCSE examination which equivalent to HSK 4. You should know the meaning of most vocabulary HSK 1 to HSK 4. If you see HSK 5 or even HSK 6 vocabulary, you are motivated to reach higher, who knows these harder vocabulary will not appear in your reading papers ( actually it happened many time the vocabulary appeared in the past papers are out of range). If you see HSK 1 to HSK 3 vocabulary, you are required to write them out in additional know how to read and the meaning. This is the answer to annoying question raised by many students “Should I know how to write them?” The 6 levels classification provide a grid to evaluate students’ progress by teacher or self-assessment by students. Such classification will enable students go faster as too much memorize of writing of Chinese characters will slow down their progress. It takes us six month to do this small but significant modification, a painful task for us but for goodness of students. By providing the best English translation available on the world (not bragging, no jokes, the best, seeing is believing), HSK classification reference and past papers sentences illustration, we created more than just a dictionary, a vocabulary list or a reference book, Edeo (Educational Video) courses. Our practical and unique approach integrated with our IT system seamlessly will bring you the learning experience you may never know! Grab our courses and success in your examinations!
