Before you start to Learn Chinese Language_Chinese Words

Chinese Language is not an easy language to learn. Each Chinese words has multiple meanings and own way of writing. You need to start from the very basic else you will never pick it up.

Best way is, and I am not joking, go get primary school Chinese Language books, start from standard 1, slowly study and proceed your way up. Once you reached standard 6 of primary school, you should be able to read, write Chinese words and talk like a Chinese. It will take a teenager 6 years to do that, but for an adult, if your are hard working and persistent, I believe a year or two should be sufficient.

Some Tips for learning Chinese.


-Don't skip a day or a few weeks just because you don't have time. You'll forget everything and have to start from scratch.

-Tones/pronunciation is very important in Chinese Language. When first starting and learning new vocabulary, take some extra time to practice the tones. For example: what, to a native English speaker might seem to be "moo", "moo?" and "moo!" is actually three different, completely unrelated, words in Mandarin.

-Get some friends that come from China or other Chinese speaking countries to teach you some Chinese. Make sure they know Chinese, as many schools in China now teach English.

-Persistence is key! If you think you know a lot, be sure not to just stop reviewing and studying it, you will forget what you have learned. How frustrating will it be to have to relearn things over and over because you don't study at least 4 times a week.

-By and large, Chinese people are very proud of their culture, and enjoy helping people learn their language. Don't be afraid to ask for help or practice with a native speaker.

-Another thing to remember, find opportunities to speak it.

-Remember, little and often.

-If you can, taking at least an introductory course on Chinese Language at your school or local college even from internet, can be an excellent way to be confident and accurate in your pronunciation and tones. Getting the basics down can help you have a good springboard for further studies on your own.

-If you intend to learn how to read Chinese words, seek out a good reference book or Chinese words workbook at your local bookstore or library.


-On the subject of compound Chinese words, it is of note that about two thirds of modern Chinese Language is made up of compound Chinese words. And there are actually patterns to what these Chinese words are--just look for them!

-Flashcards are very useful for learning new vocabulary, but it is equally important to practice using new Chinese words in sentences.

-Learn simple Chinese words first; these are most likely the "radicals" that use their meaning and/or pronunciation to give hints in complex Chinese words which are most likely groups of radicals themselves.
