I refer to Mandarin here mostly.
- abudabi123 4y agoI don't know the best Way. For that maybe you need a dedicated tutor who sings the Classics. The New Books Network podcast on Asia Study has interesting interviews. There are documents on the construction of Mandarin from before the civil war that may interest. At the moment I am reading the entry on Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neiye https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neiye and clipping parts from the Mawangdui silk to help as a memory aid as I go looking for characters from, for example https://apod.tw https://apod.tw https://humanum.arts.cuhk.edu.hk/Lexis/lexi-mf/search.php?word=夬 https://humanum.arts.cuhk.edu.hk/Lexis/lexi-mf/search.php?wo... https://ctext.org/searchbooks.pl?if=en&searchu=說文解字 https://ctext.org/searchbooks.pl?if=en&searchu=說文解字 If you take up a cultural activity such as Taiqi or Calligraphy you will get to practise the living language, the ideal would be at an institute that pre-dates the civil war, such as, the China Institute where Ezra Vogel use to present insight. Other education institutions have open courseware. I started at EdX.
