There are only around 1500 to 2000 Chinese characters are actually used in daily life.
The rest of the characters are rarely used and seemed.
Students in first or second grade in Primary school should be able to read newspaper.
2000 is very high number, it think it must be till 5th or 6th grade to learn all of them.
Both Vietnamese and Chinese are tonal language. The tone makes the diference, basically a word: different tone means different meaning.
Pls see also my post #149.
One language in North-East India of Khasi tribesman in Meghalaya state is a Mon-Khmer language and a language isolate in India.
