- Chinese Radicals

Similar to Chinese Pinyin Table, the Chinese Radical Table lists all the radicals for the simplified Chinese characters, grouped by stroke count. The list of Chinese radicals is a rough equivalent of a Chinese alphabet. They are used to index the characters for Chinese dictionaries. They are also building blocks of the Chinese characters and often reflecting some common semantic or phonetic characteristic. Knowing common radicals can greatly help you learn new Chinese characters.

The English meaning of each radical will be displayed as tooltip when you move your mouse over it. To look up a character, you can click the radical. All the simplified characters with the radical will show up instantly.

If you are looking for characters with a particular component, which may not be a radical, you can use Search by Component page. Alternatively, if you know the Pinyin, you can use Chinese Pinyin Table to look up characters.



Search Chinese characters in the dictionary by English definitions or Pinyin.
e.g.,hello, goodbye, ni3 hao3, zai4 jian4. Pinyin must be entered with tone numbers.
