Hiya I'm using the system to learn mandarin chinese characters - entering them myself into the program when I can get the time. The problem of course is that the characters on their own aren't enough, you need to learn the common combinations of each character. So each new character means a new set of between 2 to 5 cards. I've entered 150 characters, and have 799 cards. That means to learn the full set of 3,000 most common characters, I'm looknig at something near 16000 cards, which is a bit daunting to say the least.
I'm wondering if that many cards would affect the usefulness of the program. Or whether it actually might be more effective to break it into sections, maybe of 500 characters (and therefore around 2500-2600 cards) so you can declare one set "learned" and move on to the next? Otherwise you might be spending the whole time cycling through card after card after card that you already know and never getting to anything new. Any thoughts? thanks Steve --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "mnemosyne-proj-users" group.
