Finally an easy pre made deck to ease the Mandarin learners into the language and teach us the basics!
Some of you have been waiting a while for this. Here is a quote from another post where I wrote about it:
"I will be posting a finished copy of that deck tonight. So... Lucky you. It starts with Zhongwen Green for the first 15 chapters or so then it switches to zhongwenred all the way to lesson 111, which is where zhongwen red ends. I am just touching up a few things and I will release it. I think almost all the audio is included maybe 99% or sentences include audio. A few don't have it where it wasn't available.
I will release it as an anki deck, using rapidshare or like site.
I haven't seen a better 1+1 deck for starting out in Chinese this one is nearly ideal, I'm about halfway through and it feels like I've barely been working. I also have a deck available of the ESSENTIAL 2700 characters or whatever from Smart.fm that I will be using after I finish up ZWR, In my opinion there is no point in doing all three.
Also, the deck is set up picture(only a few included) and audio on the front, hanzi, english, and pinyin(in white font) on the back, as that is how I have been studying. Edit the template as you'd like of course, but I found that it is EXTREMELY helpful for listening and also everytime I hear or think of a word the hanzi just pop up in my head for it. I initially just tried this method out after reading Khatz blog on it. I don't much prefer it for Japanese as in Japanese listening is much easier and I am simply aiming at high reading comprehension, however for mandarin it is a pretty ideal template, again, whatever suits you."
SIMPLIFIED CHINESE ONLY FOR NOW- Sorry you traditional learners out there, I copy and pasted enough as it was.
If someone wants to run these through google translate and release a traditional version then feel free to do so. You can contact me and I'll add the link to the top post.
Anyways enough talk here's the release:

I didn't fiddle with the card layout yet, so you'd still need to add the {{Traditional}} tag yourself.
