Fantastic App For Learning Hanzi

This is a wonderful app for learning Chinese characters. There are detailed video explanations and mnemonic devices. I’m thoroughly enjoying this app, and it comes at a very reasonable price point.

Merci !

Cette application est vraiment bien conçue, elle facilite grandement mon apprentissage. Elle permet de faire des associations entre le sens des caractères, leur étymologie, des exemples d’utilisation, la prononciation, etc. C’est un réel plaisir de l’utiliser et une aide inestimable pour progresser. Bravo aux concepteurs !

Buona apl

Ve la consiglio, vengono spiegati i caratteri cinesi e diventa più facile il cinese.

No option to turn off the pinyin?

Decent app, but what is the point of supplying the chinese characters without the option to turn off the pinyin underneath them? It just means that your eye will naturally drift down to reading the romanised script and you won't be forced to use your ears. It'll just slow down your learning.

Excellent

Je recommande à celles et ceux qui souhaitent progresser sur les caractères (entre autres). L’histoire et l’évolution de chaque caractère permet vraiment de mieux mémoriser ; l’intérêt est certain. L’application me donne l’impression d’assister à un cours avec un professeur tout en conciliant l’autonomie d’une appli. Cela ne fait que quelques heures que j’essaie l’application et je la trouve très bien faite et addictive. Bravo aux auteurs qui mériteraient un plus large public !
