Wufnu Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 Anki is a "flashcard" program that a doctoral student recommended on Reddit a few weeks ago. I gave it a try and I really like it. It's free and is basically just a memorization tool. The best thing is that you can find free "decks" online. They typically include the characters (traditional and simplified), pronunciation, pinyin, and English (or other language) translation. Most have about 1500 characters per deck and are progressive from beginner to advanced. I'd highly suggest giving this application a try. http://ankisrs.net/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polaroidsredwine Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 Anki is basically my favorite flashcard program. More than just downloading decks, you can make your own or customize the ones you download for your needs, though this isn't often an issue if you go for specialized decks. My favorite feature is that it does a fairly great job of tracking your memorization and will shuffle decks accordingly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dieselfit Posted November 28, 2013 Report Share Posted November 28, 2013 I haven't tried Anki but I've heard it's very useful by some friends. I want to learn Chinese and I will probably try this out. Thanks for suggesting it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
