JohnSmith1980 Posted October 7, 2006 at 07:14 PM Report Posted October 7, 2006 at 07:14 PM Was wondering if anyone knew any websites that had some lists of some of the most common colloquial to literary chinese conversions? Having a bit of trouble reading newspaper articles but already know most of the colloquial characters and meanings....... Quote
gato Posted October 8, 2006 at 01:13 AM Report Posted October 8, 2006 at 01:13 AM I don't know of any websites, but this book is good. http://www.chinese-forums.com/index.php?/topic/9379-book-on-formal-chinese-writing A Learners' Handbook of Modern Chinese Written Expressions (Paperback) by Yu Feng Quote
wushijiao Posted October 8, 2006 at 05:06 AM Report Posted October 8, 2006 at 05:06 AM The book by Feng Yu (冯禹) really is great for understanding formal Chinese. It is also brief, and easy to understand. Quote
