Hanzi Decomposition

Hanzi Decomposition will decompose any hanzi into its radicals and components. Although hanzi are part of an entirely different system, they're colored here to help you easily visualize their Japanese counterparts. This dictionary contains all the relevant Japanese phonetics for each hanzi. Although this is a Chinese dictionary, every Japanese kokuji has been also included.

Why are there so many hanzi and kanji decomposing dictionaries?!
Since no standard chart for decomposing kanji exists, each dictionary relies on its own unique algorithm to detect and identify different parts and radicals inside each character. Some dictionaries can offer valuable insight, detecting subtle patterns across the sea of characters often elusive to humans.
