Through a deep understanding of linguistics, paleography and software engineering, Outlier Linguistic Solutions is distilling data from cutting-edge research into game-changing, easy-to-use products for teaching how Chinese characters actually work. These products range from a set of innovative electronic dictionaries to be sold on iOS and Android through Pleco, the #1 mobile app for Chinese, to data licensing, workbooks, posters and language learning apps and they all meet Outlier's high standards for both content and form.
Outlier’s innovative new learner's Chinese character dictionary for Pleco (on iOS/Android) is designed to greatly increase learning efficiency by explaining how Chinese characters actually work. This is done by revealing how characters work as a system. Each character a student learns is a building block for understanding this system, keeping the amount of learning to small, manageable chunks. The logic behind this system is a powerful tool for learning new characters, remembering old ones and being able to make intelligent guesses about unfamiliar characters.
