Questions and best piece of advice to learn writing and spelling in Mandarin!

你好!! I'm a Saudi 20M from Saudi Arabia who is interested in the East Asian culture especially the Chinese culture.

I find Chinese language very interesting especially when I knew that each character represents something in real world like the flame (火焰) as you can see here the 火 looks like a flame. It is incredibly interesting to me!

I've been trying my best to learn the spelling in Mandarin but I reached a point where I think asking for an advice from the native speakers would facilitate the long road.

**Q1. Can you spell the majority of the words flawlessly in pen and paper and not using auto correct in devices?**

**Q2. Can you read anything in Chinese? I've heard there are more than 100,000 recorded Chinese characters, how can you read when you don't know the character?**

**Q3. Do you make mistakes with the tones? If by mistake I said a different word will people understand me based on the context?**
