[quote=JSUMMERS83,287864]I read somewhere that in order to be able to read or write a simple e-mail between friends you need to know around 800-1000 characters...to read a newspaper requires at least 3000 characters. That's disheartening at first, but once you start reading the excitement of deciphering this code really is addictive. I have found in my own studies that the first 800 or so characters are necessary to book memorize, but after that the best thing is force yourself to read and write new and harder things. I love Disney books with the charcters and pinyin. Copy the link below for an example. These books are easy to find at the local bookstore in China but might be harder to get elsewhere. It's worth a try, though. http://www.amazon.cn/mn/detailApp?ref=DT_RV&uid=000-0000000-0000000&prodid=bkbk742657[/quote]
