Remembering Simplified Hanzi 1: How Not to Forget the Meaning and Writing of Chinese Characters

This book contains a thousand of the most commonly written characters (plus 500 recommended characters) in simplified Chinese.

“Remembering Simplified Hanzi 1” uses a tried-and-true approach based on logical ordering, where each character serves as the building block for the next.

The approach also encourages imaginative memorization, where every character is paired with a keyword that represents the concept.

The keyword is then tied in with the components of the character, such as the strokes, in a “story” that helps makes sense of the character’s structure.

Although it’s the first one in the series, user reviews have indicated that this book is better suited for those with basic knowledge of writing Chinese characters.

So if your writing skills aren’t at that level yet, it’s best to use it alongside other study materials geared toward beginners.

It’s true that many have survived day-to-day life without needing to further their Chinese writing skills . However, if you really want to master the language, writing practice is a must.

Practice means writing characters to the point where you don’t have to think about how they’re written. As professor  Victor Mair  of the University of Pennsylvania says, “Writing Chinese characters is a highly neuro-muscular act. You have to etch the characters into your nerves and muscles.”

Don’t worry, you’re not always expected to practice “Bart Simpson style,” writing words repeatedly on the chalkboard until the strokes are permanently etched in your mind.

The internet is full of educational tools to keep your writing in check, and I’ve hand-picked a few tools that you should consider adding to your study routine.

Writing out the same words over and over again can be tiring and boring. And it might not be the most effective learning strategy for everyone.

Luckily, there are a few other things you can do to ensure you know every stroke.

To native English speakers, the Chinese language looks like a series of strange symbols.

If you take a look at the character development, you’ll notice that there’s a story behind each one. Chinese characters are basically pictograms and ideograms. They started off as ancestral symbols that looked like the concepts they were representing.

For example, rain is  雨   (yǔ), but was originally depicted as an “E” facing down with a water droplet trailing on each horizontal stroke.

By learning the origins, you’ll have a better understanding of the structure of your characters. It also helps with creating mental pictures as you recall characters in your writing practice.

Chinese characters are composed of radicals that offer either semantic or phonetic clues.

By learning these, you’ll get clues about what other characters mean.

When the easy character   女 (nǚ) , or “female,” is used as a radical within a more complex character, the character is most likely describing something feminine.

For example, there’s 妈妈 (mā mā) for “mother” or 孀 (shuāng) for “widow.”

So when you’re trying to remember those “feminine” characters, you’ll at least have one element of the character in your head.

How is it possible to memorize the order of strokes for each character?

It seems like a daunting task, but there’s a method to the madness. Once you learn the eight ground rules for the strokes , the writing motion will eventually become second nature to you.

Everyone works at their own pace and has their preferred learning style. Because there isn’t one solution for all, give of few of these resources a shot and see which ones work best for you.

How To Write In Chinese

Chinese is a complex language with many dialects and varieties.

Before we dive into learning to write Chinese characters, let’s just take a second to be clear exactly what we’ll be talking about.

First, you’ll be learning about Mandarin Chinese , the “standard” dialect. There are 5 main groups of dialects and perhaps 200 individual dialects in China & Taiwan. Mandarin Chinese is the “standard” used in Beijing and spoken or understood, by 2/3 of the population.

Second, there are two types of Chinese characters: Traditional and Simplified . In this article, we’ll be talking about Simplified Chinese characters, which are used in the majority of Mainland China.

There is an ongoing politicised debate about the two kinds of characters, and those asking themselves: “Should I learn traditional or simplified Chinese characters?” can face a difficult choice.

  • For more on difference between Simplified and Traditional characters read this article
  • To learn more about “the debate” read this excellent Wikipedia article
  • If you want to switch Simplified characters into Traditional, you might like the fantastic New Tong Wen Tang browser plugin

First Steps in Learning Chinese Characters

When learning a European language, you have certain reference points that give you a head start.

If you're learning French and see the word l'hotel , for example, you can take a pretty good guess what it means! You have a shared alphabet and shared word roots to fall back on.

In Chinese this is not the case.

When you're just starting out, every sound, character, and word seems new and unique. Learning to read Chinese characters can feel like learning a whole set of completely illogical, unconnected “squiggles”!

The most commonly-taught method for learning to read and write these “squiggles” is rote learning .

Just write them again and again and practise until they stick in your brain and your hand remembers how to write them! This is an outdated approach, much like reciting multiplication tables until they “stick”.

I learnt this way.

Most Chinese learners learnt this way.

It's painful…and sadly discourages a lot of learners.

However, there is a better way.

Even without any common reference points between Chinese and English, the secret is to use the basic building blocks of Chinese, and use those building blocks as reference points from which to grow your knowledge of written Chinese.

This article will:

  • Outline the different levels of structure inherent in Chinese characters
  • Show you how to build your own reference points from scratch
  • Demonstrate how to build up gradually without feeling overwhelmed

The Structure Of Written Chinese

The basic structure of written Chinese is as follows:

I like to think of Chinese like Lego . .. it's very “square”!

The individual bricks are the components (a.k.a  radicals ).

We start to snap these components together to get something larger – the characters.

We can then snap characters together in order to make Chinese words.

Here's the really cool part about Chinese: Each of these pieces, at every level, has meaning.

The component, the character, the word… they all have meaning.

This is different to a European language, where the “pieces” used to make up words are letters.

Letters by themselves don't normally have meaning and when we start to clip letters together we are shaping a sound rather than connecting little pieces of meaning. This is a powerful difference that comes into play later when we are learning vocabulary.

Let's look at the diagram again.

Here we start with the component 子. This has the meaning of “child/infant”.

The character 好 (“good”) is the next level. Look on the right of the character and you'll see 子. We would say that 子 is a component of 好.

Now look at the full word 你好 (“Hello”). Notice that the 子 is still there.

  • The character 好 is built of the components 女 and 子.
  • The character 你 is built from 人 + 尔.
  • The word 你好 in turn is constructed out of 你 + 好.

Here's the complete breakdown of that word in an easy-to-read diagram:

Now look at this photo of this in real life !

Don't worry if you can't understand it. Just look for some shapes that you have seen before.

The font is a little funky, so here are the typed characters: 好孩子

What components have you seen before?

Did you spot them?

This is a big deal.

Here's why…

Why Character Components Are So Important

One of the big “scare stories” around Chinese is that there are 50,000 characters to learn.

Now, this is true. But learning them isn't half as bad as you think.

Firstly, only a few thousand characters are in general everyday use so that number is a lot more manageable.

Second, and more importantly, those 50,000 characters are all made up of the same 214 components .

And you already know one of them: 子 (it's one of those 214 components).

The fact that you can now recognise the 子 in the image above is a huge step forward.

You can already recognise one of the 214 pieces all characters are made up of.

Even better is the fact that of these 214 components it's only the 50-100 most common you'll be running into again and again.

This makes Chinese characters a lot less scary.

Once you get a handle on these basic components, you'll quickly recognise all the smaller pieces and your eyes will stop glazing over!  

This doesn't mean you'll necessarily know the meaning or how to pronounce the words yet (we'll get onto this shortly) but suddenly Chinese doesn't seem quite so alien any more.

Memorising The Components Of Chinese Characters

Memorising the pieces is not as important as simply realising that ALL of Chinese is constructed from these 214 pieces.

When I realised this, Chinese became a lot more manageable and I hope I've saved you some heartache by revealing this early in your learning process!

Here are some useful online resources for learning the components of Chinese characters:

  • An extensive article about the   214 components of Chinese characters  with a free printable PDF poster.
  • Downloadable posters of all the components, characters and words.
  • If you like flashcards, there's a great Anki deck here and a Memrise course here .
  • Wikipedia also has a sweet sortable list here .

TAKEAWAY : Every single Chinese character is composed of just 214 “pieces”. Only 50-100 of these are commonly used. Learn these pieces first to learn how to write in Chinese quickly.

Moving From Components To Chinese Characters

learn chinese through story

Once you've got a grasp of the basic building blocks of Chinese it's time to start building some characters!

We used the character 好 (“good”) in the above example. 好 is a character composed of the components 女 (“woman”) and 子 (“child”).

Unlike the letters of the alphabet in English, these components have meaning .

(They also have pronunciation, but for the sake of simplicity we'll leave that aside for now!)

  • 女 means “woman” and 子 means “child”.
  • When they are put together, 女 and 子 become 好 …and the meaning is “good”.
  • Therefore “woman” + “child” = “good” in Chinese 🙂

When learning how to write in Chinese characters you can take advantage of the fact that components have their own meanings.

In this case, it is relatively easy to make a mnemonic (memory aid) that links the idea of a woman with her baby as “good”.

Because Chinese is so structured, these kind of mnemonics are an incredibly powerful tool for memorisation.

Some characters, including 好, can also be easily represented graphically. ShaoLan's book Chineasy does a fantastic job of this.

Here's the image of 好 for instance – you can see the mother and child.

Visual graphics like these can really help in learning Chinese characters.

Unfortunately, only around 5% of the characters in Chinese are directly “visual” in this way. These characters tend to get the most attention because they look great when illustrated.

However, as you move beyond the concrete in the more abstract it becomes harder and harder to visually represent ideas.

Thankfully, the ancient Chinese had an ingenious solution, a solution that actually makes the language a lot more logical and simple than merely adding endless visual pictures.

Watch Me Write Chinese Characters

In the video below, which is part of a series on learning to write in Chinese , I talk about the process of actually writing out the characters. Not thousands of times like Chinese schoolchildren. But just as a way to reinforce my learning and attack learning Chinese characters from different angles.

My Chinese handwriting leaves a lot to be desired. But it's more about a process of reinforcing my language learning via muscle memory than perfecting my handwriting.

You'll also hear me discuss some related issues such as stroke order and typing in Chinese.

The Pronunciation Of Chinese Characters

The solution was the incredibly unsexy sounding… (wait for it…) “phono-semantic compound character”.

It's an awful name, so I'm going to call them “sound-meaning characters” for now!

This concept is the key to unlocking 95% of the Chinese characters.

A sound-meaning character has a component that tells us two things:

  • the meaning
  • a clue to how the character is pronounced

So, in simple terms:

95% of Chinese characters have a clue to the meaning of the character AND its pronunciation. 

到 means “to arrive”.

This character is made of two components. On the left is 至 and on the right is 刀.

These are two of the 214 components that make up all characters. 至 means “to arrive” and 刀 means “knife”.

Any idea which one gives us the meaning? Yup – it's 至, “to arrive”! (That was an easy one 🙂 )

But how about the 刀? This is where it gets interesting.

到 is pronounced dào.

刀, “knife” is pronounced dāo.

The reason the 刀 is placed next to 至 in the character 到 is just to tell us how to pronounce the character! How cool is that?

Now, did you notice the little lines above the words: dào and dāo?

Those are the tone markers, and in this case they are both slightly different. These two characters have different tones so they are not exactly the same pronunciation.

However, the sound-meaning compound has got us 90% of the way to being able to pronounce the character, all because some awesome ancient Chinese scribe thought there should be a shortcut to help us remember the pronunciation!

Let's look at a few more examples of how 刀 is used in different words to give you an idea of the pronunciation.

Even if sometimes:

  • the sound-meaning character gives us the exact sound and meaning
  • or it gets us in the ballpark
  • or worse it is way off because the character has changed over the last 5,000 years!

Nevertheless, there's a clue about the pronunciation in 95% of all Chinese characters, which is a huge help for learning how to speak Chinese.

TAKEAWAY : Look at the component parts as  a way to unlock the meaning and pronunciations of 95% of Chinese characters. In terms of “hacking” the language, this is the key to learning how to write in Chinese quickly.

From Chinese Characters To Chinese Words

First we went from components to characters.

Next, we are going from characters to words.

Although there are a lot of one-character words in Chinese, they tend to either be classically-rooted words like “king” and “horse” or grammatical particles and pronouns.

The vast majority of Chinese words contain two characters.

The step from characters to words is where, dare I say it, Chinese script gets easy!

Come on, you didn't think it would always be hard did you? 🙂

Unlike European languages Chinese's difficulty is very front-loaded.

When you first learn to write Chinese, you'll discover a foreign pronunciation system, a foreign tonal system and a very  foreign writing system.

As an English speaker, you can normally have a good shot at pronouncing and reading words in other European languages, thanks to the shared alphabet.

Chinese, on the other hand, sucker-punches you on day one… but gets a little more gentle as you go along.

One you've realised these things:

  • there aren't that many components to deal with
  • all characters are made up of these basic components
  • words are actually characters bolted together

…then it's a matter of just memorising a whole bunch of stuff!

That's not to say there isn't a lot of work involved, only to say that it's not particularly difficult. Time-consuming, yes. Difficult, no.

This is quite different from European languages, which start off easy, but quickly escalate in difficulty as you encounter complicated grammar, tenses, case endings, technical vocabulary and so on.

Making words from Chinese characters you already know is easy and really fun . This is where you get to start snapping the lego blocks together and build that Pirate Island!

The Logic Of Chinese Writing

Here are some wonderful examples of the simplicity and logic of Chinese using the character 车 which roughly translates as “vehicle”.

  • Water + Vehicle = Waterwheel = 水 +车
  • Wind + Vehicle = Windmill = 风+车
  • Electric + Vehicle = Tram/Trolley = 电+车
  • Fire + Vehicle = Train = 火+车
  • Gas + Vehicle = Car = 汽+车
  • Horse + Vehicle = Horse and cart/Trap and Pony = 马+车
  • Up + Vehicle = Get into/onto a vehicle =上+车
  • Down + Vehicle = Get out/off a vehicle =下+车
  • Vehicle + Warehouse = Garage = 车+库
  • To Stop + Vehicle = to park = 停+车

Chinese is extremely logical and consistent.

This is a set of building blocks that has evolved over 5,000 years in a relatively linear progression. And you can't exactly say the same about the English language!

Just think of the English words for the Chinese equivalences above:

Train, windmill, millwheel/waterwheel, tram/trolley, car/automobile, horse and cart/trap and pony.

Unlike Chinese where these concepts are all linked by 车 there's very little consistency in our vehicle/wheel related vocabulary, and no way to link these sets of related concepts via the word itself.

English is a diverse and rich language, but that comes with its drawbacks – a case-by-case spelling system that drives learners mad.

Chinese, on the other hand, is precise and logical, once you get over the initial “alienness”.

Image: Rubisfirenos

Making The Complex Simple

This logical way of constructing vocabulary is not limited to everyday words like “car” and “train”. It extends throughout the language.

To take an extreme example let's look at Jurassic Park .

The other day I watched Jurassic Park with my Chinese girlfriend. (OK, re -watched. It's a classic!)

Part of the fun for me (annoyance for her) was asking her the Chinese for various dinosaur species.

Take a second to look through these examples. You'll love the simplicity!

  • T Rex 暴龙 = tyrant + dragon
  • Tricerotops 三角恐龙 three + horn + dinosaur
  • Diplodocus 梁龙 roof-beam + dragon
  • Velociraptor 伶盗龙 clever + thief + dragon (or swift stealer dragon)
  • Stegosaurus 剑龙 (double-edged) sword + dragon
  • Dilophosaurus 双脊龙 double+spined+dragon

Don't try to memorise these characters, just appreciate the underlying logic of how the complex concepts are constructed .

(Unless, of course, you are a palaeontologist…or as the Chinese would say a Ancient + Life + Animal + Scientist!).

I couldn't spell half of these dinosaur names in English for this article. But once I knew how the construction of the Chinese word, typing in the right characters was simple.

Once you know a handful of characters, you can start to put together complete words, and knowing how to write in Chinese suddenly becomes a lot easier.

In a lot of cases you can take educated guesses at concepts and get them right by combining known characters into unknown words.

For more on this, check my series of Chinese character images that I publish on this page . They focus on Chinese words constructed from common characters, and help you understand more of the “building block” logic of Chinese.

TAKEAWAY : Chinese words are constructed extremely logically from the underlying characters. This means that once you've learned a handful of characters vocabulary acquisition speeds up exponentially.

How To Learn Written Chinese Fast

Before diving into learning characters, make sure you have a decent grounding in Chinese pronunciation via the pinyin system. 

The reason for this is that taking on pronunciation, tones and characters from day one is really tough.

Don't get me wrong, you can do it. Especially if you're highly motivated. But for most people there's a better way.

Learn a bit of spoken Chinese first. 

With some spoken language under your belt, and an understanding of pronunciation and tones, starting to learn how to write in Chinese will seem a whole lot easier.

When you're ready, here's how to use all the information from this article and deal with written Chinese in a sensible way.

I've got a systematic approach to written Chinese which you can find in detail on Sensible Chinese .

Right now, I'm going to get you started with the basics.

The Sensible Character System

The four stages for learning Chinese characters are:

Sounds technical huh? Don't worry, it's not really.

Sensible Chinese learning method

This part of the process is about choosing what you put into your character learning system.

If you're working on the wrong material then you're wasting your efforts. Instead choose to learn Chinese characters that you are like to want to use in the future.

My list in order of priority contains:

  • daily life: characters/words I've encountered through daily life
  • textbooks: characters/words I've learnt from textbooks
  • frequency lists: characters/words I've found in frequency lists of the most common characters and words

2. Processing

This is the “learning” part of the system.

You take a new word or character and break it down into its component parts. You can then use these components to create memory aids.

Hanzicraft.com or Pleco's built-in character decomposition tool are fantastic for breaking down new characters. These will be helpful until you learn to recognise the character components by sight. These tools will also show you if there are sound-meaning component clues in the character.

Use the individual components of a character to build a “story” around the character. Personal, sexy and violent stories tend to stick in the mind best! 🙂 I also like to add colours into my stories to represent the tones (1st tone Green, 2nd tone Blue etc.)

After the “input” and the “process”… it's time to review it all!

The simplest review system is paper flashcards which you periodically use to refresh your memory.

A more efficient method can be found in software or apps that use a Spaced Repetition System, like Anki or   Pleco .

An important point: Review is not learning .

It's tempting to rely on software like Anki to drill in the vocabulary through brute-force repetition. But don't skip the first two parts – processing the character and creating a mnemonic are key parts of the process.

It isn't enough to just learn and review your words… you also need to put them into use !

Thankfully, technology has made this easier than ever. Finding a language exchange partner or a lesson with a cost-effective teacher is super simple nowadays, so there's no excuse for not putting your new vocabulary into action!

The resources I personally use are:

  • Spoken – iTalki
  • Written – Lang-8
  • Short form written – WeChat / HelloTalk

Importantly, whilst you are using your current vocabulary in these forms of communication, you'll be picking up new content all the time, which you can add back into your system.

The four steps above are a cycle that you will continue to rotate through – all the corrections and new words you receive during usage should become material to add to the system.

To recap, the four steps of systematically learning Chinese characters are:

By building these steps into your regular study schedule you can steadily work through the thousands of Chinese characters and words you'll need to achieve literacy.

This is a long-haul process! So having a basic system in place is very important for consistency.

How to Say Homework in Chinese

Learning how to say “homework” in Chinese is essential for effective communication, especially when you are studying or working in a Chinese-speaking environment or interacting with Chinese-speaking individuals. This guide will provide you with formal and informal ways to express this term in Chinese, along with some regional variations if necessary. Whether you are a student or a professional, these tips, examples, and insights will help you confidently navigate the Chinese language.

Table of Contents

Formal Ways to Say Homework in Chinese

1. 作业 (zuòyè):

The term “作业” is the most common and formal way to express “homework” in Chinese. It is widely used across China, Taiwan, and other Chinese-speaking communities. This term is interchangeable with “homework” in English and is applicable to various educational levels, both for school and college/university assignments. For example:

我有很多作业要做。 Wǒ yǒu hěnduō zuòyè yào zuò. I have a lot of homework to do.

2. 功课 (gōngkè):

Another formal term for “homework” in Chinese is “功课.” It is commonly used in Mainland China and Singapore. “功课” can also refer to general schoolwork or assignments outside the classroom. For instance:

请你完成明天的功课。 Qǐng nǐ wánchéng míngtiān de gōngkè. Please complete tomorrow’s homework.

Informal Ways to Say Homework in Chinese

1. 作 (zuò):

In informal contexts or casual conversations, you can simply use the character “作” to refer to “homework.” While not as common as the formal terms mentioned above, it is still widely understood. This abbreviated form is commonly used among friends or family. For example:

你写完作了吗? Nǐ xiě wán zuò le ma? Have you finished your homework?

2. 作业本 (zuòyèběn):

“作业本” is a colloquial expression that refers specifically to the physical exercise book used for completing homework. In informal situations, people may use “作业本” to talk about homework instead of using the term “作业” directly. For instance:

我忘记带作业本了。 Wǒ wàngjì dài zuòyèběn le. I forgot to bring my homework book.

Regional Variations

While the previously mentioned terms are widely understood in most Chinese-speaking regions, Chinese dialects and regional variations can introduce some differences.

1. 書包 (shū bāo) in Hong Kong:

In Hong Kong Cantonese, “書包” (shū bāo) is commonly used to refer to “homework.” If you find yourself in Hong Kong or interacting with people from this region, you can use “書包” to convey the same meaning. For example:

我要做書包。 Ngóh yiu jí sēuh bāau. I need to do my homework.

2. 条 (tiáo) in some parts of Northern China:

In certain areas of Northern China, particularly around Beijing, the term “条” (tiáo) can be used when referring to homework. This is a regional variation that has gained popularity in recent years. For instance:

老师布置了好多条。 Lǎoshī bùzhì le hǎo duō tiáo. The teacher assigned a lot of homework.

Tips for Learning Chinese Vocabulary

1. Practice with Flashcards:

Create flashcards with the Chinese characters and corresponding English translations for “homework.” Regularly review the flashcards to reinforce your memory and improve your ability to recall the terms effortlessly.

2. Watch Chinese Language Videos:

Find online resources or language learning platforms that offer videos with subtitles or lessons focused on vocabulary. Watching and listening to native Chinese speakers will help you recognize correct pronunciation and usage.

3. Use Language Learning Apps:

Install language learning apps on your smartphone or tablet, such as Duolingo, HelloChinese, or Memrise. These apps enable you to practice vocabulary and improve your language skills on the go.

4. Contextualize Vocabulary Learning:

Incorporate Chinese vocabulary into your daily life by using it in sentences or conversations. The more you practice, the faster you will become comfortable with the language.

Mastering the vocabulary for “homework” in Chinese is essential for effective communication in academic or professional settings. By using the formal terms like “作业” or “功课” and the informal expressions like “作” or “作业本,” you can confidently express your specific needs or inquire about someone else’s assignments in Chinese. Remember to consider regional variations if you encounter them while engaging with different Chinese-speaking communities. By implementing the provided tips and practicing regularly, your Chinese vocabulary will continue to expand, allowing you to thrive in various language environments.

I’m working through My First Chinese Words with my 6yo and 7yo. My 6yo gets overwhelmed writing the characters – too much, she says. Would you recommend I still insist on it? Or can she wait a year until she’s in 2nd grade?

eva

When my son first started, we didn’t insist that he work on characters. Even now, after a year of study, our focus is on conversation and building vocabulary. The characters he knows he has become familiar with over time. It is amazing how much he can remember without the character practice. If there are particular characters that our teacher feels he should now, he will ask that he practice writing them 10x each. However, he doesn’t expect this regularly. Our ultimate goal is that they both enjoy learning the language.

Esther Lee

Kids definitely get overwhelmed with writing the characters, so just choose a couple to start off with. You can even just start off with 1. Since each of the Chinese characters is a pictogram, sometimes it helps to give the kids a bit of background of how the word was developed. We have a DVD collection called the Magical Chinese Characters that uses animation to tell a short story of how a Chinese character was developed. It helps to make the Chinese characters a bit more approachable and memorable in terms of what to write.
