Hi all,
I put a little quiz online as part of a research paper I am writing about the ability of Westerners to learn Chinese characters. You need to be between 20 and 30 to take part, with no knowledge of Chinese characters. It should take about half an hour, but can be spread out over a few days.
If you are interested then give it a try, after you have finished ask me to post a debrief. It should give you insight into the mystical world of Chinese script, so that you can show off to your friends in China town.
THANKS
