Memorizing Language / Spelling Techniques? 237

NotesSensei writes "My kids are learning Chinese in school. While the grammar is drop-dead simple, writing is a challenge since there is no relation between sound and shape of the characters. I would like to know any good techniques (using technology or not) to help memorize large amounts of information, especially Chinese characters. Most of the stuff I Googled only helps on learning speaking."

According to IMDb and her fan sites, Pauley Perrette, who plays goth geek chick Abby Sciuto on CBS's NCIS, received a Master's degree in Criminology (with honors) from Georgia State and also studied Sociology and Psychology.

Additionally, apparently fellow NCIS cast member Sean Murray ("Probie" Timothy McGee[k]) is a real-life computer geek and David McCallum (Dr. Donald "Ducky" Mallard) is actually licensed to perform autopsies.

(Of course, take these with the usual internet disclaimers.)
