Why, theyre Chinese character cognates, of course!For the first time in English, Chinese Character Cognates expands on the unprecedented list of 808 of the most important characters that are common to Mandarin Hanzi, Japanese Kanji, and Korean Hanja.This list—which was released in 2014 by public, business, and media leaders from China, Japan, and Korea to promote friendship and cooperation in Northeast Asia—not only makes it natural for knowers of one of the languages to pick up the other two, but its broad and general coverage promises to serve as a valuable aid in gaining a deeper appreciation of Chinese characters for both the curious and serious student alike.Tailored for self-study and useful as a trusty companion in the richly rewarding journey of learning and mastering characters.Chinese Character Cognates contains:• The latest pan-CJK fonts from Adobe and Google for clear READABILITY• Logical UNICODE ordering of characters arranged by radical & stroke count• 7,000+ words to build a practical and mature VOCABULARY• Traditional character-based ETYMOLOGY for heightened retention• An INDEX for each language for cross-referencing and quick navigation• Online PRONUNCIATION GUIDE with native speaker audio recordings• Book BLOG• QR CODES for audio, a RADICAL Table, and an ANNEX for the 21 characters from the original 800 list in this revised second edition This is a great resource for the beginning student and the linguist alike. I am new to this subject, so the following impressions may need refinement. This book breaks down the large set of Chinese characters into a manageable subset of characters (the cognates) that are important enough to have retained a common meaning across three Far Eastern languages. English translation and etymology of the characters are included. The book also gives the equivalent of the character in the native scripts of Japan and Korea, as well as the pronunciation of the corresponding word in all three languages (supported by online audio). The only suggestion I would make would be to include the unicode for each character. For example, the unicode for the character meaning volume or book is 518A. This is the 907th character in the CJK unicode series. In hexadecimal, this is arrived at by adding 38A to the starting point of the series, 4E00. The HTML character entity for volume or book would therefore be 518A prefixed by &#x and with a semicolon added to it, or 冊 Chinese Character Cognates: 808 Common Mandarin Hanzi Japanese Kanji and Korean Hanja (2nd Edition) in pdf books Chinese Character Cognates: 808 Common Mandarin Hanzi Japanese Kanji and Korean Hanja (2nd Edition) He Hanja a first class honors degree and Typography and Editorial Design and a Master's degree in Communication Design from Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design, London.

  • Chinese Script Generation Panel Document
    Chinese Script Generation Panel Document Proposal for the Generation Panel for the Chinese Script Label Generation Ruleset for the Root Zone 1. General Information Chinese script is the logograms used in the writing of Chinese and some other Asian languages. They are called Hanzi in Chinese, Kanji in Japanese and Hanja in Korean. Since the Hanzi unification in the Qin dynasty (221-207 B.C.), the most important change in the Chinese Hanzi occurred in the middle of the 20th century when more than two thousand Simplified characters were introduced as official forms in Mainland China. As a result, the Chinese language has two writing systems: Simplified Chinese (SC) and Traditional Chinese (TC). Both systems are expressed using different subsets under the Unicode definition of the same Han script. The two writing systems use SC and TC respectively while sharing a large common “unchanged” Hanzi subset that occupies around 60% in contemporary use. The common “unchanged” Hanzi subset enables a simplified Chinese user to understand texts written in traditional Chinese with little difficulty and vice versa. The Hanzi in SC and TC have the same meaning and the same pronunciation and are typical variants. The Japanese kanji were adopted for recording the Japanese language from the 5th century AD. Chinese words borrowed into Japanese could be written with Chinese characters, while Japanese words could be written using the character for a Chinese word of similar meaning. Finally, in Japanese, all three scripts (kanji, and the hiragana and katakana syllabaries) are used as main scripts. The Chinese script spread to Korea together with Buddhism from the 2nd century BC to the 5th century AD.

  • The Japanese Writing Systems, Script Reforms and the Eradication of the Kanji Writing System: Native Speakers’ Views Lovisa Österman
    The Japanese writing systems, script reforms and the eradication of the Kanji writing system: native speakers’ views Lovisa Österman Lund University, Centre for Languages and Literature Bachelor’s Thesis Japanese B.A. Course (JAPK11 Spring term 2018) Supervisor: Shinichiro Ishihara Abstract This study aims to deduce what Japanese native speakers think of the Japanese writing systems, and in particular what native speakers’ opinions are concerning Kanji, the logographic writing system which consists of Chinese characters. The Japanese written language has something that most languages do not; namely a total of ​ ​ three writing systems. First, there is the Kana writing system, which consists of the two syllabaries: Hiragana and Katakana. The two syllabaries essentially figure the same way, but are used for different purposes. Secondly, there is the Rōmaji writing system, which is Japanese written using latin letters. And finally, there is the Kanji writing system. Learning this is often at first an exhausting task, because not only must one learn the two phonematic writing systems (Hiragana and Katakana), but to be able to properly read and write in Japanese, one should also learn how to read and write a great amount of logographic signs; namely the Kanji. For example, to be able to read and understand books or newspaper without using any aiding tools such as dictionaries, one would need to have learned the 2136 Jōyō Kanji (regular-use Chinese characters). With the twentieth century’s progress in technology, comparing with twenty years ago, in this day and age one could probably theoretically get by alright without knowing how to write Kanji by hand, seeing as we are writing less and less by hand and more by technological devices.

  • Negotiation Philosophy in Chinese Characters
    6 Ancient Wisdom for the Modern Negotiator: What Chinese Characters Have to Offer Negotiation Pedagogy Andrew Wei-Min Lee* Editors’ Note: In a project that from its inception has been devoted to second generation updates, it is instructive nonetheless to realize how much we have to learn from the past. We believe Lee’s chapter on Chinese characters and their implications for negotiation is groundbreaking. With luck, it will prove to be a harbinger of a whole variety of new ways of looking at our field that will emerge from our next round of discussion. Introduction To the non-Chinese speaker, Chinese characters can look like a cha- otic mess of dots, lines and circles. It is said that Chinese is the most difficult language in the world to learn, and since there is no alpha- bet, the struggling student has no choice but to learn every single Chinese character by sheer force of memory – and there are tens of thousands! I suggest a different perspective. While Chinese is perhaps not the easiest language to learn, there is a very definite logic and sys- tem to the formation of Chinese characters. Some of these characters date back almost eight thousand years – and embedded in their make-up is an extraordinary amount of cultural history and wisdom. * Andrew Wei-Min Lee is founder and president of the Leading Negotiation Institute, whose mission is to promote negotiation pedagogy in China. He also teaches negotiation at Peking University Law School. His email address is an- [email protected]. This article draws primarily upon the work of Feng Ying Yu, who has spent over three hundred hours poring over ancient Chinese texts to analyze and decipher the make-up of modern Chinese characters.

  • From the Universal to the National the Question of Language and Writing in Twentieth-Century Korea*
    Journal of World Literature 1 (2016) 245–258 brill.com/jwl From the Universal to the National The Question of Language and Writing in Twentieth-Century Korea* Lim HyungTaek Sungkyunkwan University [email protected] Abstract With the advent of western modernity towards the end of the nineteenth century, the Chinese scriptworld deconstructed. This was the greatest transformation to take place in this region in all of its recorded history, for that history began in Chinese script. China, Japan, Vietnam, and Korea all used the Chinese script but used it in different ways. The universal system was developed uniquely in each case in interaction with the vernacular. This paper will examine the ways in which Korea adopted and negotiated with the Universal script and how Chinese writing developed with respect to Korean speech. It will conclude with some observations on the tensions brought to bear on the Chinese scriptworld by nationalization and westernization. Keywords Chinese Scriptworld – nationalization – Westernization – Korean National Language * Translated by Sowon S. Park. Translator’s note: This translation is a slightly shortened version of the Korean original, which is a revised and expanded version of the paper presented by the author at the 2015 East Asian Critical Journal Conference held at Lingnan University in Hong Kong on 30–31 May on the theme of “Colonialism in Asia (殖民亞洲)”. While the essay refers to texts most of which have not been translated into English, readers need not be familiar with the literature cited in the essay for them to follow the argument. In undertaking the translation of this essay, every attempt was made to preserve the author’s tone and style wherever possible.

  • Chinese Character) Writing Skill
    THE GRAPHABET AND BUJIAN APPROACH AT ACQUIRING HANZI (CHINESE CHARACTER) WRITING SKILL CHEN-YA HUANG University of Hong Kong Abstract Learning how to write orthographically correct Hanzi (otherwise known as the Chinese character) is a major hurdle facing students studying Chinese. The difficulty arises from the visual complexity of Hanzi, the opaqueness, i.e. diminished correspondence of sound to orthography, and the traditional method of learning Hanzi, which is monopolized by rote repetitive copying, excessive demand on memory, and lacking of any means of creating an auditory memory of the structural organization of individual Hanzi. As a result, the novice student has to invest a great deal of time and effort trying to master Hanzi, and is often deterred from continuing study. Yet, despite the seriousness of the problem, very little research has been carried out on its solution. This paper proposes a new approach at improving the ability to write Hanzi, through understanding Hanzi as strings of subunits stacked in two-dimensional space, and composed from 21 high frequency recurring shapes herein called graphabets. The combined use of graphabets and bujian can provide a means of creating an auditory memory of the structural organiza- tion and significantly decrease the memory load through chunking, as well as facilitating the use of computer feedback for learning purpose. Keywords: Chinese character, character writing, orthography, teaching method, second language learn- ing. 1. WRITING HANZI, A MAJOR HURDLE IN LEARNING CHINESE The Chinese language is considered one of the hardest languages to learn by peo- ple who are not native to the language. As a result, there is a very high drop-out rate for Chinese as foreign language (CFL) students.

    Brian Bernstein Harper Kamp Janghan Kim Seungeun Seol Introduction The Purpose of Hangul Initial Users of the Hangul Alphabet Chinese Influence Over Korea Usage of the Hangul Alphabet Conclusion Future Thoughts References King Sejong the inventor, said, “The speech sounds of our nation are different from those of China and are not confluent in writing. Thus, there are many among the ignorant peasants who, when they have something they wish to say, are ultimately unable to express their meanings. Taking pity on this, I have newly created twenty-eight letters, and simply wish for any and all to learn them with ease and use them at their convenience in daily life”(Kim , 1997) Before Hangul, Chinese Hanja was used as the primary writing system Chinese characters common in Asia at the time, great influence Chinese couldn’t express Korean thought very well using Hanja Chinese Hanja was difficult, the majority of Koreans were effectively illiterate Hangul was not officially adopted into Korea until 1945, after gaining independence from Japan Common folk could not write in Chinese Hanja Would give an opportunity to the common folk to become literate and informed Would close the information gap by allowing disseminating information http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ File:Statue_Sejong_le_Grand.jpg Aristocracy did not approve, wanted to maintain their high status Hangul was easy to learn and would allow for the expression of Korean thought http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ File:Hunmin_jeong-eum.jpg Lower Class -Widely used by common folk
