When you forget which character it is...



Chinese text reads: Ahh... I've forgotten which character it is!

The phone shows multiple characters that are pronounced similarly to 'zuo'.


Forgetting or confusing a character with another is very typical when you first start learning Chinese.

Characters are one of the things that kind of put people off learning this language sometimes. But we shouldn’t let it.


After all these years of learning and teaching it, I believe it’s better not to rely only on Pinyin (the English way of writing Chinese words) when starting to learn Chinese.

Pinyin is an important part for sure: but at some point, characters will catch up with you.


And if you don’t know them, it will be like you don’t have the key to pass through a gate that will unlock the next level for you.


So… Happy learning. :)
