Day 14 - Hit with piles of money.

Two full weeks of learning Chinese characters! Today I had a crazy long lie in until 8am. Normally I get up at about 6am, so it was a lot of sleep for me. Now I am going to lie in bed playing Red Dead Redemption and revising Mandarin. 

Let's do this!

Todays characters are - 

swine 豕

home 家

why 曷

to drink 喝

to have 有

to love 爱

to be able 能

tea 茶

cloud 云

to know how to 会

to beg 乞

to eat 吃

to examine 相

to think 想

archer's thimble 夬

lump 块

zero 零

knock (radical), rap, tap 攵

to do 做

to look forward to 巴

dad 爸

this 此

a few 些

person who does 者

all 都

A lot of super important characters in there. Hard to imagine being able to read Chinese without knowing the words to eat or to do. 

I found them all fairly easy. The only one I think I will have difficulties remembering long-term is 做. It has the characters of 'person' + 'fortune'(?) + 'to hit'. So maybe I should imagine a person being hit with a pile of money. Not really sure. Anyway....bye.
