Texts compiling high-frequency characters


Recommended Posts

Posted

I'm trying to find modern texts compiling high-frequency characters, for memorization goals, similars to the three classic 三字經,百家姓 and 千字文

 

Until now I found out :

* 中华字经 (4000 characters) http://chinajac.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/%E4%B8%AD%E5%8D%8E%E5%AD%97%E7%BB%8F%E6%8B%BC%E9%9F%B3%E7%89%88.pdf

* “现代千字文” by 张朋朋 1995 (50 sentences, 1234 characters) http://www.gxxd.net.cn:1001/date%5CH%5CB3056392.pdf

And I'm looking for the full versions of :

* “现代千字文” https://iask.sina.com.cn/b/1SWxD1ImC7un.html (no mention of author, and only 7 parts out of 20 ? it begins with : " 一、人伦篇 : 一二三四 五六七八 九个儿童 嬉闹玩耍"

* "现代千字文" wrote in 1991 by 安子介 (the same author who wrote "Cracking chinese puzzles") which contains 3411 characters in 148 sentences

 

I got some of these references from the book «La voie des signes. L'apprentissage de la lecture en Chine » by Bernard Allanic.  https://www.amazon.fr/voie-signes-Lapprentissage-lecture-Chine/dp/2753555206 The author argues that chinese learners should memorize as soon as possible the most common 1500 characters (a litteracy threshold similar to the sum of the three classical educational texts 三字經, 百家姓, 千字文). His own list of characters can be found here (p.7-9) http://www.lfip.net.cn/media/53b4f85d631d5.pdf

He also points to this breakdown of characters in 560 basic components : 汉字基础部件表 http://www.moe.gov.cn/ewebeditor/uploadfile/2015/01/12/20150112165337190.pdf
