Hanzi
Explore the charm of Chinese language
Chinese Characters (Hanzi)
Hanzi is one of the oldest continuously used writing systems in the world, having evolved over thousands of years from its pictographic origins. Unlike phonetic scripts, Hanzi are logographic characters that integrate form, sound, and meaning into a single "square" unit, which allows the written language to transcend barriers of time and dialect. More than just a tool for communication, Hanzi is a cultural treasure that carries China's vast history, philosophy, and aesthetic ideals.
