User Reviews
I have been studying cantonese for over 20 years. I have never really been able to master the writing part of learning traditional Chinese characters until this app. This app is truly incredibly & amazing. Not only does it help you learn the characters… But it also shows you what each part of the character means. For example if you touch on the character at the very bottom of the page, it will take you to another page and blow up the character into its different components. Totally amazing. It makes it much easier to memorize, learn, and understand the character if you know what you’re actually writing on each part of the character. For example the word to say 講 (gong) is comprised of 言 (speech), 井 (thirty), 冂 (hood), and 土 (soil). Now when I write this character, I actually KNOW what I’m writing and not a bunch of strange symbols.

I've been struggling with Cantonese. "Forget about reading and writing" people say, "just be great at speaking".
That might work for Spanish, Russian etc. but Cantonese has TOO MANY WORDS THAT SOUND THE SAME to my nooby ears. I needed to see the word. I found apps that showed me the script (not easy to find them for Canto learners) Next, I'm like, "huh? what's these squiggles??!"
These 'squiggles' contain a wealth of cultural information, I found, using this app. You can break the characters down into their smaller parts to see the concepts that went into building them. "Wrong" for instance. Something gold left in the reeds. To "cull" - hand, claw, tree - fruit picking, I guess.
Once something is understood it is remembered, and this app has a multitude of ways to get you to remember. Are you a visual, aural or kinesthetic thinker? Doesn't matter, the app has it covered. Then there is the timed repetition where, if you take off the word cap in the settings, a word will be reshown to you just as you are about to forget it. That is still considered cutting edge.
The best thing of all though is the way words easily confused due to very similar sounds are presented together so you can sort out which is which once and for all. I think I've tried every app in the store and I haven't seen that before. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! You just saved me years of struggle.
As a vocab building app, this is as good as it gets. If I were to make some suggestions it would be to having the primitives closer than two clicks away from the word being tested, make the tone colors customizable, and have the option for a female voice throughout.

It takes too much effort to figure out how the app works.
