...presents more of a challenge to beginning/intermediate students. If our other upcoming Chinese-Chinese releases do well this might be worth considering, but for now I'm more inclined to look at something like Heisig or Matthews that's designed as a loosely-etymology-derived character...

...that we'll finally add annotations to the flashcard system (at least) sometime in 2011, it might be possible for us to have a locked-down Heisig database that still allowed you to add your own mnemonics. But they are talking about it, which is worth something... OCR is pretty controversial...

...being exportable to text files, both editors would certainly be concerned about illegal copies circulating. Certainly, in the case of the Heisig, there couldn't be any kind of "locking" of the cards since the user would need to edit them to write in their own mnemonic story for each...

...the character / pinyin / definition fields, and reveal them separately, you'd simply create a flashcard list with the format: character<tab>@Heisig keyword<tab>Heisig mnemonic I've been going back and forth about whether or not to approach UH Press (which publishes Heisig) or Tuttle (which...

...I had typed was something along the line of "Pleco (as far as I can tell) always includes the pinyin pronunciation of characters whereas Hanzi Heisig ignores pronunciation (and irritatingly, even inefficiently in my opinion, completely eschews phonetic primitives)." [in blue the text that I...

...but you can easily skip it for customized ones. Could you explain your comment about "phonetic primitives"? I was under the impression that Heisig for Chinese rather explicitly avoided doing anything with pronunciation (it's only the Japanese title that uses pronunciation) - was that comment...

I forgot to say in my previous post... Another thing to keep in mind is that some of the "primitives" used by Heisig in the Hanzi book are not characters proper. This is not a problem when producing paper-based cards because it's always possible to do a bit of cropping/masking in a graphic...

I have not completed the flashcards for the Heisig book because I was blocked by formatting issue. To do the Heisig method properly you really need 3-sided cards. 1 side would be the character, one would be the "key word" Heisig associates to the character, and the third side would be be the...

...from an Anki deck I found on another forum a year or so ago. The original Anki deck occasionally had different keywords than the official Heisig keywords. I corrected some of these but some differences remain. Nevertheless this deck got me through RTH. I also added chapter and character...

Does someone have the flashcards of the Heisig's books. While some people are better at rote memorizations, many perform better with semantic approach: explanations, connect to previous knowledges, then memorization. That's the focus of this book, and it received great appraisal for this. The...

@JYH: I'm looking for this flashcard since it is not available in my country but seems a nice method, did you provided this flashcard set ? where ?

...I go back to viewing the card the eol characters have been replaced by space characters. I am trying to use Pleco to make flashcard for the Heisig book, so of course I have to stuff a lot of information in that Definition field (the "meaning" word for the character, possibly "primitive"...

I know a lot of it is old, but there are new resources continually being researched. I actually wasn't referring to "story-based" memorization (like how my teacher taught that children like plums, so they（子） sit underneath the (plum)tree（木） --> 李). I just meant the more "scientific" etymology...

...are too many 形声字 for which story-based memorization doesn't work, so as a learning tool I tend to think you're better off with something like Heisig or Tuttle Learning Chinese Characters. On #5, Simplified / Traditional switching in Char Info is a bit dicey since the software doesn't always...

...spaced recognition algorithm that should combine with the yet-to-come flashcard feature and with above character learning feature. 3. Character analysis, including a search feature, using Heisig's primitives and their corresponding key words, as an alternative to using "traditional" radicals.

...that's linked to a regular Pleco dictionary entry would probably also include the traditional character 舊, whereas the entry in your custom Heisig dictionary might not. The missing Pinyin might also be a factor. There's really no good solution to this problem - if we flagged cards as...

...had some irregular behavior when I tried to import a personal dictionary (one that I made myself based on "Remembering Simplified Hanzi" by Heisig-Richardson) I used the format <headword><tab><pronunciation left blank><tab><definition>. Everything seemed to work fine, except that the pinyin...

...Characters book. Each character in the book has a simple / humorous story to assist in remembering the character. It is similar to James Heisig's method, however there is an additional component in which tones are represented by one of four different characters (i.e. giant, dwarf, fairy...

Character splitting Do you have support for character splitting in the dictionary eg 明 ＝ 日 ＋ 月， 好 ＝ 女 ＋ 子? Like Harbaugh's character dictionary or Heisig. So one could navigate to the parts of a character to help learning the composite character.
