Animated cartoon to help you memorize, once and for life, a few basic character parts, which many people confuse!
Remembering Chinese Characters is quick and easy if you know the parts of the character. Whether you are a beginner, an intermediate or an advanced student, you'll find many radicals are similar to each other. How to differentiate between them? You can watch my cartoon series that aims to do just that. For other characters check out the following free resources www.wordbuddy.com/ www.yellowbridge.com/chinese/dictionary.php where you can see character parts along with translations. Whatever you do, don't read on as it will be for youtube algorythms so my vid shows up in search. I therefore mention Cantonese and Japanese, and Beijing and Guangdong and even Shanxi and Chinese calligraphy for beginners, aka free lessons classes and learning Asian culture. Is there an alphabet in Mandain? China, simplified. How do you write Chinese characters, what is the meaning of 214 Kangxi radicals and Kanji in China, all while history of writing. And learning Chinese by yourself, super easy lesson Chinese for starters, while also advanced Mandarin strokes order, not to mention Mandarin Characters, pinyin or zhuyin. Enjoy your day, I love you all.

the radicals walk and hit are rarely used in writing and speaking. They are only radicals to build other more meaningful characters. We use 走 (zou3) for walk. and 打 (da3) to hit

I'm Chinese and I'm laughing so hard about this. Great work, you made it so intuitive. However, I‘ve never seen 夂(zhi3) and 攵(pu1) used independently; I didn't even know they have pronunciation and meaning. BTW, here is the pronunciation of all the radicals and characters: 夂,zhi3 攵,pu1 夕,xi1 歹,dai3 行,xing2 多,duo1 客,ke4 政,zheng4 死,si3 街,jie1

Wow this was awesome I have been learning Japanese and Chinese off and on for about a year and this has really helped with some radicals I still didn't really understand. Thank you!

Thanks for the video. Eventhough i'm learning Japanese, the character of Kanji has the same meaning with Chinese - this is helpful to memorize those symbols. I love it.

This is fantastic! My son and I are learning Mandarin largely on our own, and these videos will be very helpful in remembering more characters :) And having more fun while at it! May you be healthy and prosperous in the Year of the Dog and make us more videos ;)

Absolutely fantastic - I wish such videos are made more and more, and of longer duration. Thank you Radical Mandarin.

In nowdays,"走"means "walk" , "行"also means "walk" ,so you can use both together as "行走",and "跑" means "run" . In ancient China, "走" means "run" , "行"means "walk" and "趨"means "walk fast". 趨 can use in nowdays too , but rarely.
