## What is Jinli Chinese?

This flashcard app helps you improve your Chinese character recognition.  

It uses spaced repetition (SRS) combined with character score tracking to generate flashcard sets for your daily use.

——

Features:

Levelling up: 
Studying is broken into 3 phases: learning, practicing, and reviewing.  As you study and improve on each character, you level it up until you’ve finished all 3 phases and it’s considered mastered!

Goal tracking:
To get started, you pick from the standard HSK vocabulary lists to set a study goal.  These lists offer great coverage of all the commonly used Chinese characters (more word list options are coming soon!).  It’s easy to view your ongoing progress within the app.

Simplicity:
To keep the learning process simple and snappy, each character is assigned a key meaning, pronunciation and word example automatically.  You may customize these if you wish using the included dictionary.  

Targeted questions:
Characters are tested from 3 different angles: character recognition, pronunciation and comprehension.  The app also tracks your mistakes and takes these into consideration when retesting each character.  

——

This app is a simple study aid, intended to complement (not replace) your other Chinese coursework or daily practice.  

We hope it might be helpful.  Good luck with your studies!
