Pronunciation ——fā yīn

Language Note

ü

1. Finals with -ü can all stand by themselves. The finals ü and üe are spelled yu and yue when they

stand alone.

2. The initials “j,” “q,” and “x” can only be combined with i and ü families.

3. When “j,” “q,” or “x” is spelled together with the ü family, the two dots on top of ü should be removed: for example, jǔ (to lift). However, when combining ü with n and l , the two dots should be kept: for example, nǚ (female).

Combinations of Radicals and Phonetics ——部b ù首shǒu +声

shēng 旁páng

Radicals represent a word’s ; for example, words with the radical 女 nǚ often have to do with females. The phonetic element gives a word its ; for example, words containing 马 mǎ often sound similar to it —such as mā , m á, mǎ or m à. Ninety percent of Chinese characters are derived in this way.

Match the combinations of each radical with the 马 m? phoneme with the appropriate English word.

1. 虫 (insect ) + 马 = 蚂 (m?) A. agate

2. 王 (jade ) + 马 = 玛 (m?) B. ant

3. 石 (stone ) + 马 = 码 (m?) C. yard (unit of measure)

4. 口 (mouth ) + 口 + 马 = 骂 (mà) D. mother

5. 女 (women ) + 马 = 妈 (mā) E. scold

The Importance of Proportion When Writing Characters

Hàn zì：“square” characters ——no matter how simple or complex, each character fits

inside a square.

Five main structures of hàn zì:

(Once these five structures are mastered, the makeup of Chinese characters will be much more

familiar and less intimidating to you. These structures will not only help you memorize characters , but also reduce problems with missing dots or strokes when writing . )

I held a whip in my hands and was pleased with myself When all of a sudden, not knowing what happened,

I fell and got covered in mud.
