The Chinese Character Decomposition Helping Hand

Feb 19, 2017 08:44

What is the Chinese character decomposition guidance? It is a top-down chart splitting a character into smaller, meaningful components.

The components, in their turn, are broken into separate radicals with tones and meanings.

Such decomposition is very helpful to the Chinese language learners to memorize and remember the Chinese characters.

It also gives a better idea of the Chinese language at large.
