DeepChinese turns 3,188 Chinese characters into little stories you can actually remember. Every character is built from simple components with a short, often funny mnemonic — who could forget that a king is just one person above two lines — in an order designed so each new character is assembled from pieces you already know.

WHAT'S INSIDE

• 3,188 characters, each with pinyin, meaning, a memorable story, and a full component breakdown • An ordered curriculum: visually simple characters first, then complex ones built out of them
• Animated stroke order for every character, plus hands-on writing practice • Component references — tap any part to flip to its story, swipe right to come back, just like the book
• Search that understands you: type "xian" to find xián, "nv" to find nǚ. English meanings work too. No tone marks, no special keyboard
• Flashcards with spaced repetition, direction options, shuffle, and your own custom lists
• HSK word decks: 11,000+ words across the new HSK 1–9 standard and the old HSK 1–6 lists, with pinyin and meanings
• Character Deep Drill — three rounds per character: meaning, pinyin, and typing • Grammar: HSK 1–3 points with example sentences • Favorites, gentle daily reminders, and 17 themes including a warm bookish dark mode
