I am looking for a systematic way where I can learn Chinese characters online. I have
been studying the characters for the JLPT on my own, doing about 3-5 a day and in the last three months have improved my ability dramatically! I would like to do something similar to Mandarin. Anyone have any recommendations? 1 person has voted this message useful | |

I love this site: Learn Hanzi
Normally I hate flashcards, but the way they're presented here makes it kind of addictive to practice them. 3 persons have voted this message useful | |

Thanks Jinx. I'll be sure to check it out. If you are more self-motivated, I found
http://www.readmandarin.com/ is also a good site because it lists I believe the most frequently used Mandarin characters on the internet. I am not really looking to learn to write them as I am in Japanese(different study goals), so I figure learning about 20 or so of these every couple of days shouldn't be too challenging. Looking at the first 20 there was only maybe 6 or 7 that I was slightly unfamiliar with. 2 persons have voted this message useful | |

For the Chinese characters to really sink in, I strongly urge you to write them. This is why for me flash cards are only part of the story. They help jog the memory but don't necessarily get the knowledge in there in the first place. Writing is what does that for me.

I agree. Writing the kanji has certainly made me understand them and remember them much
better. With Chinese it is a bit different since I already know about 500+ characters from my study of Japanese, so I am going to play around with them and see which approach for remembering them works best for me. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Skritter: this website has completely changed the way I study Chinese characters, and has taught me thousands of them.
