Speak and Read Chinese

Fun Mnemonic Devices for Remembering Chinese Words and Their Tones
A handy supplement to studying characters in class or independently that teaches useful tricks for remembering words and tones.

From one of the authors of Basic Patterns of Chinese Grammar comes Speak and Read Chinese, a simple, fun guide that helps language learners remember pinyin, tones, and characters of essential Chinese words.

Students and teachers rate pinyin, tones, and characters as some of the most difficult aspects of learning Chinese. This book addresses this issue by organizing easy memorization tricks for the three hundred most basic characters in popular textbook series like Integrated Chinese and New Practical Chinese Reader.
