Template:Han char/documentation

This is used under the Han character header, in the Translingual section of the entry for a single Han character, which precedes the language sections. It adds the character to Category:Han characters in radical/stroke sort order (then by Unicode order). The content is generated by Module:zh-han.

Parameters

All parameters are named:

|alt=

alternate form(s)

|rad=

single character radical

|rn=

radical number

|as=

additional strokes without the radical

|asj=

additional strokes in Japanese (as an example) without the radical - See other variations below.

|sn=

total strokes. Three here is "3", not "03".

|snj=

total strokes in Japanese (as an example) - See other variations below.

|four=

four corner system (format 1234, 12345 or 1234.5, multivalue separated by comma)

|canj=

Cangjie input (A-Y only, multivalue separated by comma)

|ids=

Ideographic description sequence. Separate multiple values with a comma; for the allowed regional annotations, see below. Usually a single ideographic description character and the two or three characters that the current character is made of.

Notes

These are all from the information loaded by "NanshuBot". The idea is that some of them will change/go away/be represented differently. These changes can be made with the template in some cases; even when a bot is required, it can find the template instance and operate on it.

The template uses 2-column format; this was just done to make the first pass easy.

Regional annotation in the ids parameter states the character's shape that commonly used in some regions:

(G) PRC and Singapore, (C) only PRC, (S) only Singapore,

(H) Hong Kong, (T) Taiwan, (M) Macau, (J) Japan, (K) both Korea, (V) Vietnam,

(X) font-variation that does not appear in the UCS specification but matches the same codepoint

Variations in additional strokes and total strokes

The parameters below apply to both |as*= (additional strokes) and |sn*= (total stroke number)

Note the differences in stroke count between different regions for these radical components:

• 艹/艹 - 4 strokes in traditional Chinese and Korean; 3 strokes in simplified Chinese/mainland China and Japanese.

• 辶/辶/辶 - 4 strokes in traditional Chinese and Japanese (for non Jōyō kanji characters) and Korean; 3 strokes in simplified Chinese/mainland China and Japanese Jōyō kanji.

• 阝 - 3 strokes in traditional Chinese, Japanese and Korean; 2 strokes in simplified Chinese/mainland China.

Other points to take note of:

• In some cases, the value for |as= (additional strokes) is the same while |sn*= (total stroke number) is different. This applies for characters listed under the radicals given above.

• In some cases, the term "mainland China" is preferred over "simplified Chinese". This applies to Xin Zixing (新字形) characters in mainland China that are written in traditional form. Some examples are given below.

• See 萈/萈 (U+83A7) and 鷀/鷀 (U+83A7) for examples on how to apply different stroke counts. Differences in stroke number may occur due to Han unification.

Example

{{Han char|head=字|rn=39|rad=子|as=03|sn=6|four=30407|canj=JND|ids=⿱宀子}}

字 (Kangxi radical 39, 子+3, 6 strokes, cangjie input 十弓木 (JND), four-corner 3040₇, composition ⿱宀子)
