HOW IT WORKS
读
Read
Fables, idioms, and classics handed down for centuries. Read each one with a tap for meaning and pinyin above every character.
藏
Collect
Every story you finish joins your shelf. Arrange your studio and make the space your own.
练
Practice
A few quiet minutes a day. Guided practice keeps what you have read from slipping away.
来信 · FROM THE MAKER
I’m Conder. I grew up loving to read stories, write poetry, and to play games. 砚台 is the learning experience I wished existed when I was a kid. My goal is to make learning Chinese idioms and history as fun as it is eye-opening. This is for those looking to begin taking their Mandarin fluency to the level of scholars.
