Simplified vs. Traditional CHINESE

Simplified Chinese is NOT another kind of Chinese,
it is merely a supplement of TRADITIONAL characters,
substitutes of some high-frequency-used * characters
for daily hand-writting convenience.

Nowadays, used as the "official written language" in China mainland only.

* only about 300 characters, see the website above.

In a general essay, 70% plus of the character is TRADITIONAL,
only about 30% is simplified.

All you need to do is get familiar with
these 300 simplified characters.

1.   One Pronunciation has "multiple" Characters.
2.   One Character has "multiple" Pronunciations.

These are the nature of
WRITTEN Chinese language.

These are the NIGHTMAREs of
PinYin method in Chinese computing!

Another NIGHTMARE is 50+ different "dialects"
spoken in 50+ different provinces!

It is impossible to turn
13-billion people into skillful "linguists"
even in several hundred years.
