Proclamares saltem suppetiatum, si resistere vir tantus mulieri nequibas. Sub oculis tuis homo iugulatur, et siles? Cur autem te simile latrocinium non peremit? Cur saeva crudelitas vel propter indicium sceleris arbitro pepercit?

Techniques for learning and retaining characters also, take up calligraphy. when you get a 'problem character', learn to write the character in as many styles as you can. |

Techniques for learning and retaining characters do what chinese children do: memorize lots of stuff, and recite it out loud or copy it out by hand. in some schools, lu xun's stories have also been memorized verbatim, down to punctuation. he's not my favorite chinese writer (i think wang xiaobo takes that cake) but getting a feel for his prose style is very useful. |

How did 葉 (leaf as in vegetation) become 叶 when it was simplified? I can't speak for this character, but reading the Compilation of Cursive Characters (《草字彙》), authored by Shi Liang (石梁) of the Qing Dynasty demystified simplified characters for me in cases where the radicals disappear, and actually made them beautiful in a way they had never been before. |

的-地-得, when do you use which? learn a bit of classical and you'll never get them confused, if only because constructions involving the same 得 are ubiquitous |

Reading handwriting not true. the rules of grass script went into a lot of simplified characters, and when you write cursive, you integrate those rules with other common practices. |

General guidelines for learning stroke order my experience is that there are no guidelines. if you are absolutely meticulous, as i was, you will find that the variation is enormous. within any given country, the rules may be fairly uniform, but when you branch out or learn traditional (or, vice versa, simplified) characters, you'll have to 'un learn' stuff. and to top it all off, when you learn grass script or even kaiti callligraphy, you'll have to change the order. so don't think about guidelines. forget about them. there are many inconsistencies i could point out, if i had the desire. |
