Chinese Character Cognates: 808 Common Mandarin Hanzi Japanese Kanji and Korean Hanja (2nd Edition) - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

They often look alike, though that’s not always the case.
They sure don’t sound alike, but they certainly mean the same.
If you know one, you should already know them all.
If one doesn’t know any, one should start with all three.

What are they? Why, they're Chinese character cognates, of course!

For the first time in English, Chinese Character Cognates expands on the unprecedented list of 808 of the most important characters that are common to Mandarin Hanzi, Japanese Kanji, and Korean Hanja.

This list—which was released in 2014 by public, business, and media leaders from China, Japan, and Korea to promote friendship and cooperation in Northeast Asia—not only makes it natural for knowers of one of the languages to pick up the other two, but its broad and general coverage promises to serve as a valuable aid in gaining a deeper appreciation of Chinese characters for both the curious and serious student alike.

Tailored for self-study and useful as a trusty companion in the richly rewarding journey of learning and mastering characters.

Chinese Character Cognates contains:

• The latest pan-CJK fonts from Adobe and Google for clear READABILITY

• 7,000+ words to build a practical and mature VOCABULARY
