How to study RTH traditional? - lavallo - 2009-06-18
I am studying RTH simplified using ANKI. I wish to simultaneously study the traditional forms. What is the best course of study? I am interested in just getting an ANKI deck for RTH traditional, but none seem to have been set up on the ANKI site. I am not that excited about doing data entry for 1500 traditional Hanzi into a new ANKI deck, especially with so much overlap. Has anybody sat down and worked through RTH simplified and RTH traditional and kept a record of all the variations in the texts? I would be interested in seeing such a list.

When most textbooks teach characters, they simply put the traditional in paranthesis next to the simplified form.
So you'd have: 请 (請) on the front, for example, then the meaning/pinyin on the back.
PS: It's nice to see somebody else from the Bay Area

It's a list of relationships between RTK and RTHs

Um, exuse my stupidity but, do people write Mandarin in traditional characters?
Because you would think traditional would be easier. (to me at least)

Mandarin is simplified, except in Taiwan, I think... Then again, I don't study Chinese... confirmation anyone?

Really, Mandarin is a spoken language. You write Chinese, and you speak Mandarin or Cantonese or whatever. Not to say that colloquial speech isn't written down; it is. And it can be in either character set. They're the same characters/meanings/pronunciation, just some are simplified.

Awesome! So I don't have to learn to write simplified characters as long as I can read them and write in Traditional?

gyuujuice Wrote:Awesome! So I don't have to learn to write simplified characters as long as I can read them and write in Traditional?Correct. This is something like what most people end up doing. Really, most people learn to write simplified and read traditional, but learning to write traditional makes more sense to me since Taiwanese sometimes have trouble understanding simplified, and mainlanders generally understand traditional better.

This is great news! I despise the symplified characters!
