Though these kinds of characters indicate meanings, one of their shortcomings is that they do not show how they should be pronounced.
盡管這些字可以表意，但缺點就是它們顯示不出自己的發音。
Therefore, a method was developed to have one part of a character indicate the meaning and the other suggest the pronunciation.
于是就產生了另外一種方法：將表意的部分和表音的部分結合起來，形成一個漢字。
Many Chinese characters used today were made this way.
目前所使用的很多漢字就是用這種方法創造出來的。
In the 1950s the Chinese government introduced simplified Chinese characters and now they have widespread use in China's mainland.
20世紀50年代，中國政府推行簡化漢字，現在，簡化字已在中國大陸廣泛使用。
