Description

The Learner's Japanese Kanji Dictionary provides a comprehensive and easy-to-use tool for looking up the readings and meanings of Japanese words and names written in Chinese characters (kanji). Each kanji entry features extra-large form, with its strokes labeled in order, and includes handwritten pen and variant forms, as well as its general structure and graphemes. This dictionary lists the most important 2,882 characters and 12,073 multi-character compounds, including all 1,945 Joyo Kanji and 284 Jinmei-yo Kanji sanctioned for use in given names. It also includes approximately 700 surnames and 600 given names, making it a valuable resource for beginners and those looking to learn Japanese. The dictionary's radical-based lookup system makes it easy to learn and use, with entries arranged to facilitate quick lookup under whichever character is quickest to find. This feature is particularly helpful in deciphering sloppy handwriting or a blurred copy.
