8 min+20 XP
P3-P4 characters expand your vocabulary into more specific topics like food, nature, transport, festivals and hobbies. These 80 characters appear frequently in PSLE comprehension passages and are essential for composition writing.
At this level, you should start learning compound words (词语) — two-character combinations that form complete meanings. For example, 飞 (fly) + 机 (machine) = 飞机 (aeroplane).
🔗 Building Compound Words (词语)
Chinese words are often formed by combining two characters. Understanding how characters combine helps you remember vocabulary and guess meanings of new words.
