In Chinese writing, a character, or symbol is used to represent each individual syllable. There are over 47,00 Chinese characters in total, however many of these are rarely used, and the average person would need to know only about four thousand characters to be literate. Most modern Chinese words contain more than one syllable and therefore require multiple characters to write out. However, a person knowing the meanings of individual characters can often infer the general meaning of a word.

In this free video series, our expert will show you how to write Chinese symbols for words related to work and working. You will get expert tips on writing and pronouncing words like get promoted, salary, income, pay raise, and workaholic. You will also learn about the derivatives of each word, like work overtime, layoff and resign. If you are interested in learning some Chinese words and characters, let our expert show you the basics words for work.
