## Description

Chinese Buddy is your patient AI Mandarin tutor — always pitched exactly at your level.

Most apps make you memorize word lists. Chinese Buddy gets you speaking and reading. One tap and you're in a natural conversation with a patient AI panda tutor: it listens, responds, and gently corrects you.

Why it works
• Speaks at your level — every reply is just one step above what you already know. You understand almost everything, yet always learn something new.
• Characters are a network, not a list — tap any word for an instant character card: component breakdown, sound and meaning parts, origin stories. Hanzi stop being isolated symbols.
• Tones come first — the Tone Dojo trains your ear with minimal pairs, so your Mandarin actually sounds right.
• Smart pinyin — annotations appear only on characters you don't know yet, and fade out automatically as you improve.
• Graded reader — AI generates articles you can actually read, matched to your character knowledge, with just the right density of new words.
• Your character count is your progress bar — knowing 1,000 characters covers 92% of everyday Chinese. Every step is visible.
• Remembers what you've learned — words come back for review at the perfect moment (spaced repetition), so they truly stick.

What's inside
• Natural conversation practice with instant, gentle feedback
• A 5-minute smart placement quiz that estimates your character knowledge
• Tap-any-word graded reading with hanzi cards
• Tone perception training dojo
• Clear progress reports and HSK alignment
• A warm panda buddy that keeps you going
