My Method

0) Before reading about my method, please read the introduction first (Begin with the oldest post).

1) I will give you mnemonic advices for the 3000 most common characters used in Modern Chinese.
These characters are all listed on zein.se (in the same sequence I will explain them).

2) But there is a problem:
For example the most common character is 的, and 的 consists of the components 白 and 勺, but these two components are more seldom characters than the character 的.

So visit yellowbridge and find out the components of each character.
Alternatively you can also use zhongwen.com.

Before explaining the character I will explain its components.
So I will explain 丶 first, then 日, then 白, then 勹, then 勺, and in the end 的.

3) Why is it so good to know the meaning of components?
Read Mnemonic...

4) Where are the explanations?
To read my explanations please visit Reviewing the Kanji.
This website is made for Kanji-learner (people who learn the japanese variants of Hanzi, more: here)
BUT it's also possible to write explanations for Hanzi!

5) How do I find the explanations for one cerain Hanzi?
When you are logged in at Reviewing the Kanji search for the character you want to know in the 'Study' section ('browse').
The you will certainly find many explanations by many users.

My user name onReviewing the Kanji is 'sinologe' .

6) My former user name on Reviewing the Kanji was pjdekl...

7) There are also characters which are not on Reviewing the Kanji. In this case I will post the mnemo explanation on my blog here...

8) Simplified characters are not shown on Reviewing the Kanji.
Take the traditional variant instead!
For learners of simplified characters I will explain this simplified character on this blog (see (7) ),
but only once. For example: I won't explain 们, but 們, 門 and 门 (because 们 already contains 门, so it's sufficient to explain only 們...)
