Abstract

This paper focuses on the development of the “HSK Pictophonetic Character Mnemonic Guide”. Based on an analysis of the current situation and problems of existing HSK Chinese character learning materials, this paper explains the significance of developing this guide, and details its writing ideas, including the innovative approach of using phonetic components to connect content, strictly defining levels, introducing words and sentences through characters, and incorporating images and bilingual comparisons. Additionally, the paper cons a comparative experiment on the application effect of the “HSK Pictophonetic Character Mnemonic Guide”, showing that it significantly enhances learning effectiveness for intermediate and advanced learners.
