Chinese Character Flashcards 888

Flashcards

This is an indispensable resource for learning Chinese characters. The flashcards are high quality and a perfect size that balances readability and portability. The front of the card contains the character in large font, and also the frequency of usage, character radical, traditional character equivalent (if different), and stroke order. The back of the card contains the pinyin pronunciation, the definition of the character, and a number of words that contain the character, along with each definition.

The flashcards have only one drawback. Because of a lack of space, the stroke orders are sometimes abbreviated, combining a few steps. It isn't always apparent which of the combined strokes should be written first. Stroke order aside, this is the best set of Chinese-language flashcards on the market.
