Vocabulary is still kind of important. I think that learning the top 3000 words in any language will get you far. Start with 100, then 500, then 1000 etc.

- mncharity 6y agoMy memory being quite spatial, I was intrigued that given the compactness of Chinese words, a good sized n-most-common-words working vocabulary, in a small font, would fit in 1080p. I pictured an electron app, with words ordered by usage frequency, with mouseover for translation and speech, dynamic colorization for various relationships, and a window for browsing chinese websites, with their content tied back to the pane of words. I've never seen anything like that, but for me it had a feel of "but of course - how else would I best go about learning to read Chinese?"
