help Du Chinese FAQ

Does Du Chinese teach simplified or traditional Chinese?

Du Chinese supports both simplified and traditional characters, which is useful for learners focused on mainland China or Taiwan. The app also includes pinyin and audio, so readers can connect characters with pronunciation.

What level of learner is Du Chinese for?

Du Chinese organizes readings by level, from beginner stories to advanced articles. That graded-reader structure makes it different from reading raw Chinese news, where vocabulary can jump unpredictably.

Can Du Chinese help with listening as well as reading?

Yes, lessons include recorded Mandarin audio along with the text. A common study method is to listen first, read with pinyin hidden, then tap unfamiliar words for definitions.

How does Du Chinese compare with Mandarin Companion graded readers?

Du Chinese is app-based and updates with many short lessons, while Mandarin Companion is known for book-length graded stories. Du Chinese is convenient for daily phone practice on iOS or Android.
