Your Journey Starts Here

Writing Chinese characters is hard, and takes a lot of practice. There's also no quick fix - So

grab your pencil, print out these practice sheets, and get writing.

To make sure you spend your time practicing the characters that are most important for a

beginner we've created this list of the most common Chinese characters. The characters areordered by frequency, so the ones at the beginning should be more useful to you as you

start your journey.

The characters have been grouped into sets of 200, and we've given them names so you can

keep track as you progress. You'll start as a lowly Grasshopper, but if you work hard you can

progress to a Tea Egg, Crispy Duck, and beyond. At the end of The First 1000 Chinese

Characters you'll be a Giant Panda, chewing on bamboo, and ready for The Second 1000.

The First 1000 Chinese Characetrs is also available as a poster, and an ebook. Check

www.MandarinPoster.com for more information.
