5/5 stars

So useful! (2/2 people found this helpful)

This is so useful for the beginner.

500 of the most frequent characters in simplified Chinese, arranged in descending order from the most frequent.

For each character, there is a list of major meanings and usages, together with sample phrases.

For the beginner, this streamlines your learning experience - so that you know that, if you study systematically, you are studying in the most efficient manner.

This supplements other textbooks. You will almost certainly still need an ordinary English-Chinese, Chinese-English dictionary and a coursebook too.

4/5 stars

Very effective learning book for beginners (19/19 people found this helpful)

As opposed to the usual dictionary which it takes a while to find the word you're looking for in, this one is brought down to the essential and most commonly used words in the mandarin language.
I recommend it for all beginners, wishing you good luck and a lot of fun ;-)
