The First 100 Chinese Characters: Traditional Character Edition: The Quick and Easy Way to Learn the Basic Chinese Characters [9780804844925]

Overview

The First 100 Chinese Characters book adopts a structural approach that helps students to learn, recognize and write 100 Chinese characters. Designed for beginners, the characters are carefully selected and sequenced to build a strong foundation in reading and writing Traditional Chinese.

For effective learning, memorization and practice, each Chinese character is shown separately on a single page, along with its English definitions, pinyin romanization, alternate form (if any), a stroke-order guide and ample space for writing practice. Printed in gray lines, the stroke-order guides introduce the student to the standard stroke sequence used in writing the characters, by tracing them. After learning the correct stroke order, the student can then practice writing the characters on their own, thus reinforcing the recognition and memorization. Large boxes with grid lines for correct proportions are provided.

Related compounds and phrases containing each character are also included to assist in vocabulary building. Three indexes—alphabetically arranged by the English meanings, by pinyin romanization, and by radicals—are provided at the back of the book for quick and easy reference.
