Helpful Resources for Learning Chinese

I am taking my second Chinese course of University and I have been really enjoying it.  Going to class and labs with the assignments has been really good at reinforcing the language.  By attending class and participating I can really learn the material well.  Right now I am feeling fairly confident in my abilities and I am continually impressed by how much I am learning.  I have also benefited from a couple of online resources that allow me to further advance my knowledge as well as look up what I already know.  I hope you find these resources helpful if you ever learn Chinese.

My most favorite online resource is www.xuezhongwen.net .  This site is a great resource as I can look up Chinese characters that I don’t know the pinyin for or I can search using the pinyin or I can type out the characters and look up the meaning.  Overall I would definitely recommend this site to anyone who is learning Chinese.

Another site I really enjoy is the Chinese Flashcards on Yellowbridge.  These can be really helpful when you are trying to learn Chinese characters.  I have spent many hours doing these flashcards and they have been very beneficial in making me memorize the character, pinyin, and meaning.

  1. Let me unabashedly flog our new site Popup Chinese as well:

    http://popupchinese.com

    It has free podcasts, a massive dictionary, flashcards and everything else that the discriminating student should come to expect from online study sites. If you have the time, please drop by.

    Cheers,
