...learning to recognize characters, there's a good discussion of the available ones here: http://www.chinese-forums.com/index.php?/topic/19969-heisig-vs-matthews. I am personally going through the Heisig books, and reviewing with SRS flashcards (mainly using Skritter, but if I wasn't worried...

...impossible to design something that's simultaneously a memorization guide and an accurate reference; we could license a title like Matthews or Heisig that's designed for memorization and comes up with useful mnemonics even if they're not linguistically accurate, or we could try to compile /...

That one worries me because of the possibility of adding an "expert mode" - don't want settings changing on people who can't see where they changed. It also furthers the misconception that the flashcard system has to be heavily customized and won't just "work" out of the box - the goal here...

...the upcoming update. By far the greatest priority for my study method would be the addition of Custom fields. I use mnemonics (combination of Heisig & Richards and Matthews & Matthews approach) for my character and vocab studies. I know that a lot of fellow students do so too. At the moment...

Re: New HSK Level 1-6 for Heisig's Remembering Simplified Ha Great stuff. Thanks for posting!

Hi, I'm working on adding entries to a User Created Dictionary that I'm working on (its based on James Heisig's Remembering Simplified Hanzi). I have been doing flashcards on 1500 entries I put in a new dictionary created just for this purpose, but now I wanted to add the second 1519 cards. I...

This flashcard deck will allow you to start learning HSK vocabulary in parallel with studying Heisig. Created these from the Lingomi lists. HSK Vocabulary is sorted by chapter according to what character's have been introduced in that chapter An "Extra Characters" list (116 characters) is...

You'll probably want to set "Prioritize by" to "created". Here is how the manual defines those options: I'd like to help you change all of the flashcard settings to make them work the way you want them to. There are a lot of settings, but they allow you to fine-tune your flashcard workflow. How...

...to introduce some new cards. This allowed cards from the new category in, but they were randomly selected. This didn't work for me because the Heisig method I am using requires studying the characters sequentially. I am using the flashcards not to learn new characters, but to review...

I think the existing solution to your problem is the "Manage Unlearned" option. With that enabled, you only have so many new cards that are shown to you (or none). Also, through card filters, you can review only the cards that you've previously reviewed. The current built-in options allow you to...

An issue has come up for me while using Pleco to review character's I am learning with Heisig's books. Some of the chapters have an upwards of 100 characters, but I am only learning an average of 5-10 per day. I end up having to add a category to the flashcard test, then skip through a whole...

This has been a super useful companion to studying Heisig and for making flashcards. Thanks for posting. cheers

...of the Reviewing the Kanji forum. Attached is the Pleco-formatted Flashcard txt file. Please note: The definitions for this list consist of Heisig's character index (for cross-reference with the books) and the main keyword. The definitions will only be of real use if you have a copy of the...

I'm fascinated by this post. I'm studying in Chinese and International Business in DIT Aungier St Dublin. Would love to know how you met your girlfriend. I'm privileged enough to be married to a Chinese girl so if you need any advice on that side of things I'd be happy to meet you. On the...

...sense at all. This made me think that perhaps I should get back to learning the individual characters first, using something like Skritter, Heisig's method and/or the etymology of the characters (e.g. zhongwen.com) - or perhaps just my word list for starters. I would expect that writing the...

...instead of going back to the excel file each time I need to check up on my mnemonic. For those that are using Tuttle/Matthews&Matthews, Heisig, or similar mnemonic aid, how are you adding your mnemonic notes to your flashcards (if at all)? Would be of great help if such a section could be...

How long do we have to wait for these new dictionaries then? is there any sort of pricing range you can give us also?

...that front - we're not sure if we should really go ahead and license something with fake-for-memorization-purposes etymology like Matthews or Heisig, and we already have most of the data in Zhongwen Zipu via the Character Info "Chars" tab, and there aren't a lot of historical etymology titles...

Spherelander: Thanks for sharing. I'm going to try to add my mnemonics to the Heisig flashcards you've made.
