227 radicals

A list of 227 radicals is used by some simplified Chinese character dictionaries , including A Chinese-English Dictionary (Beijing, 1982) and The New Chinese-German Dictionary (新 汉 德 词典, Beijing, 1996). It includes only 226 radicals and reserves the index 227 as a category for non-classifiable characters.

Systematics

Radical is the name given to the root characters (Latin: radix , root) of the Chinese script , according to which Chinese characters are indexed in reference works. The radicals are arranged according to the number and shape of the lines. A traditional list of 214 radicals can be found in the Kangxi dictionary , for example, which is still used today.

Other radical lists are:

• 186 radicals, Changyong gouci zidian (Beijing, 1982),
• 189 Radicals, Xinhua Zidian (newer editions), and Xiandai Hanyu Cidian
• 191 Radicals, Xinhua Zidian in the 1962 edition
• 226 (actually 225) radicals, The Sino Chinese-English Dictionary , radical 207 of the A Chinese-English Dictionary has been left out here,
• 250 radicals, Cihai (in a revised version)

The pronunciation characters are the Concise || Taken from English-Chinese-English Dictionary .
