Why do I think you need to learn about Chinese characters? Everybody knows that Chinese is a kind of hieroglyph. Every character is a sign for one meaning. So Chinese is not about pronunciation, and we have so many homophones. For daily conversation, you need to know about 2000 characters. But if you refuse to know about these basic parts of Chinese, you prefer to remember words and phrases according to their pronunciations, you will be lost in vocabulary and chaos..............

I like to learn Chinese characters, because I cannot remember meaning from pinyin very well, unless I use it often. One quick glance at some 汉字, and then I immediately know the meaning from my notes.
