Chinese Bigram Flashcards Lite

This is the free Lite version of the application which limits access to the first fifty ranked bigrams.

WrittenChinese.com Chinese Bigram Flashcards offers you a method to learn the most common two-character combination "words" (known technically as a bigram) in the written Chinese language.

The frequency in which a Chinese bigram combination appears in common text varies. Some bigrams are rarely encountered while some bigrams are extremely common. For this reason, we have developed our Chinese Bigram Flashcards to put the priority in learning the most commonly occurring bigrams first.
