Chinese Characters (video 3 and video 4)

你好/Hello,

   This is the continuation from last blog that I wrote since I think it will be too lengthy to combine all of 4 videos' summary together. So, here is the review for the video 3 and 4:

Video 3 :

Video 4:

• There are 4 method of Chinese characters:

1. pictographic characters - earliest Chinese characters, based on picture.(4%)
2. indicative character - is made of stroke.

     3.associative characters - combine existing characters to give new meaning. (14% of indicative +                                                  associative)

     4.pictophonetic method - make sense of characters, adding few radicals. (80%)

• Finding the radical -left, top, outside,right, bottom, inside.
• Best way to learn Chinese characters :

1. learn to differentiate basic components
2. use the pictophonetic method to learn series of related characters.
3. study easily confused characters together.
