Hi, Min Min， 你好！
我有意见，有一些 radical （部首，（对吗？）） 表示一些特色。 那么， 能不能把每个字不但讲解它的意思，而解释一下 the relation/why the word using certain radical. I hope, it would make us easy to memorized the vocabularies. Do you agree!?
谢谢。
祝你身体健康。

Hi BubunKonstansius,
Yes. I totally agree with you.
Actually I have created a few weekly activities to explain in details the relationship of certain characters with it radical.

However, not all radicals have meaning. I will try to add more weekly activities to explain some of the popular radicals.
谢谢。
