When there are Japanese speakers in the class their character writing abilities are usually so much better than us 百人。Richard Sharpehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03954078329858407279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10900849.post-75667424083921716002008-02-07T03:08:00.000+08:002008-02-07T03:08:00.000+08:00昨天我去牙医。<BR/><BR/>Sitting in the dentists chair (I don't know the characters for dentists chair) I learned: 牙疼。<BR/><BR/>It was very effective.<BR/><BR/>However, I agree with you that you have to write the characters out to learn to write them. It is the same reason that you have to practice maths or computer programming in order to learn each of those subjects. It is no good to just read about them. The process of taking information in (looking at the characters) and then writing them exercises all the neural pathways and reinforces the learning you have done.Richard Sharpehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03954078329858407279noreply@blogger.com
