» Characters outside of familiar context: Problem, Solution, and RFC
Hey guys,

I'm having the following problem:
My reading is okayish, and I can more or less recognize about 2500 characters. The problem is, that, while I can usually identify the characters when they come up in my anki cards and in familiar words, it gets troublesome when I find the characters in words that I'm not familiar with, which is starting to really inhibit my free reading. To pick an... [Read More]

» Traditional vs Simplified radicals
Ill switch from characters to radicals. Every simplified dictionary I have shows a different number of radicals basically in the 180 range. So that leaves a difference of about 10 radicals plus or minus from one dictionary to another. One dictionary shows 210 and another 175. How come there is no standard like Traditional Kangxi with 214 where any given radical is the same number and meaning. I have more... [Read More]
