    in 95% of cases you can match up the spoken word with the written word.

    I’d be curious to know if that’s actually true.

    How’s the percentage of that for Chinese?

    If you know your radicals? We’ll say “also 95%” just to be annoying.

    But how do you learn the radicals? Same way you learn all the standard English pronunciations. Repetition.
