Chinese reading challenge, April 2026

graded reader

Not much today

Graded reader, Mandarin companion level 2

A company emailed me an AI summary in 10 languages of an article I wrote the other day, so I read the Chinese one. It was interesting and mostly accurate, so maybe I'll forward it to the in-laws.

Reading the 标准教程 texts

Couple of cheng yu and a couple sentences

One news article

From 4/20

Little bit here. And there.

Reading the news this morning

Passed couple of days.

Continuing DuChinese Story about 美猴王，reading through texts in a workbook

Another Graded Reader from Mandarin Companion

A news article and a recipe for 葱油鸡

Read chapter 2 of 我在北京送快递

怪物女孩, or "Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children." The reading went very slowly because it's been at least a month since I last read in Chinese.
