Based on the groundbreaking Synapse algorithm developed by educational pioneer Arvin Vohra, Mandarin Chinese Synapse makes memorizing chinese characters, bigrams, and idioms easier and faster.

The Synapse algorithm allows you to force your brain to memorize information. The more often you forget a word, the more often it appears. As you learn the words, they continue to appear after longer intervals, forcing them into your long term memory. The algorithm also adjusts the intervals and question types based on your percentage correct, questions you miss, and several other factors.

In Mandarin Chinese Synapse, Integrated Pronunciation practice helps you learn to correctly pronounce and hear tones and consonants as you learn vocabulary. Words are overpronounced slowly, making it easier for beginners to learn how to pronounce, and you hear yourself speak with Mandarin Chinese Synapse simultaneously teaches Simplified characters, Traditional characters, and pinyin. Questions include over 5000 characters, bigrams, and proverbs, and over 2000 sentences.

Mandarin Chinese Synapse is an excellent supplement to any Mandarin Chinese course, or a solid standalone introduction to Mandarin Chinese.
