[Back to the introduction] [Tillbaka till introduktionen]
If you wonder why there are less than 3000 characters in the list, or have other
questions, please read the introduction!
All characters are presented in falling statistical order with the most commonly
used characters first.
Alternative forms of the characters are specified within parentheses
Pronunciations are specified according to Pinyin and written within brackets "[...]".
After each given pronunciation, a number of possible translations are listed. If a
character corresponds closely to a somewhat longer word (usually a word that
contains the character in question), the longer word is given in the list of
translations marked with parentheses and a "=".
After the translation of each character, example words containing the character
are often listed – these words are separated by semi commas. No guarantee is
given that all the most common words are listed or that the given examples are
very common.
Some of the listed pronunciations are less used than others, and in those cases
translations and examples may lack.
Grammatical particles, classifiers and other special translations are marked with
hooks "<...>".
Curly brackets "{...}" are mostly used when giving references to characters that
are similar to the listed ones either in shape. This is to help you avoid
miswriting/misreading. The same marking is also used for references to
characters with similar meaning but different pronunciation.
Additional information of other sorts is sometimes given.
If the characters are not displayed correctly, verify that the encoding is set to
GB2312.
