This chapter is one of my personal recommended knowledge before you delves into chinese character
Chinese character or the word can be complex and challenging. But knowing this radicals can be very helpful for you to recognize and recall the character in implications.
You don't have to memorize them for the moment, skimmed it and make sure that you know about them.
I included some examples of the word/chinese character so that you could learn words in the process.
Do comment if you find it helpful or ask if you are confused.
😁
Happy study!
