Thank you, Anything you are willing to share would be great.
I am trying to learn Chinese and Spanish. The other Chinese info out there is only the characters, which is a hard place to start.
Thanks again.
Justin.

Hello, no problem, I can put my database here for download if you find it useful.

The only issue is that I use one database for all languages and other stuff, so I need some time to create an extract with only the Chinese templates. I will try to find some time on the weekend.

I can tell you which database NOT to use: The 1000 basic Chinese character collection sold by supermemo for $14. I used it for 5 minutes and found that they had the translation for the character for “is” flat out WRONG. They had ?listed as “yes, correct, and this? when technically Chinese doesn’t even have a word that just means “yes”. That is unforgivable, and makes all other characters suspect and with no pinyin its all around pretty useless. If it was free it I could forgive them but they haven’t even responded to my request for my money back.

If your database for Chinese has worked out the way you wanted, would you be willing to share or sell me a copy?
I am new to SuperMemo and it seems like a lot of work and specialized knowhow to get to where you are with merging databases, and I just want to learn.
Thanks, Justin.

Haven’t heard of any.

But I never use databases created by someone else, so I was not actively looking for them either.
