How do people read Chinese?

Chinese can be written like English (left to right, top to bottom, horizontally) and like Japanese (right to left, top to bottom, vertically). Things like books can be written in either way, while things like signs tend to be horizontal. If the characters look stacked on top of each other, read it vertically. If the characters are in horizontal rows, read it just like English. A Chinese sentence is made of a group of characters (a character is roughly equal to a word in English). Each character can be a word, idea, word particle, etc (的 is often used to show ownership, similar to the English apostrophe. Ex: That's Joe's book). As in English, words in Chinese can be single or compound words, with compound being far more common. For comparison: English: foreign Chinese: 外国 (wài guó) The first character means 'outside' or 'eternal' and the second character means 'country' or 'nation'. So when combined the idea is something like 'outside country' or foreign.
