The character forms of the table are based on the Commonly used standard Chinese characters. [8] The 8,105 characters of the present table are sorted by the Standard of GB13000.1 Character Set Chinese Character Order (Stroke-Based Order), keeping the hierarchical serial numbers of the table of Commonly used standard Chinese characters. [8]
A long diagonal stroke downward from right to left (丿) A very short dash stroke downward from left to right (丶) A horizontal stroke from left to right, ending with a downwards hook to the left (乙) To input any character, the user simply presses the keys corresponding to the strokes of a character then select from a list of matching ...
In this order, Chinese characters are sorted by their stroke count ascendingly. A character with less strokes is put before those of more strokes. [6] For example, the different characters in "漢字筆劃, 汉字笔画 " (Chinese character strokes) are sorted into "汉(5)字(6)画(8)笔(10)[筆(12)畫(12)]漢(14)", where stroke counts are put in brackets.
The maximal number of characters sharing a code is reduced to 4, such as 甲 曱 叶 申. (Duplicating code characters, i.e., characters sharing a stroke order code, are sorted by the positions of the starting and ending points of corresponding strokes in the order of higher before lower and left before right.) [24]
There are 20,902 Chinese characters, including simplified and traditional characters from China, Japan and Korea (CJK). [19] The stroke numbers of characters range from 1 to 48 strokes. The 12-strokes group has the most characters, taking 9.358% of the character set. On the average, there are 12.845 strokes per character. [20] [18]
Stroke numbers vary dramatically, for example, characters "丶", "一" and "乙" have only one stroke, while character "齉" has 36 strokes, and "龘" (three 龍s, dragons) 48 strokes. The Chinese character with the most strokes in the entire Unicode character set is "𪚥" (four 龍s) of 64 strokes.
In this table (Chinese name: GB13000.1字符集汉字字序表), all the 20,902 CJK (China, Japan and Korea) Chinese characters are sorted in standard order, covering over 700 A4 pages. Each character is represented by an entry, with the contents of: "serial number, Chinese character, number of strokes, stroke order, and Unicode, etc".
Chinese character external structure is on how the writing units are combined level by level into a complete character. There are three levels of structural units of Chinese characters: strokes, components, and whole characters. [3] For example, character 字 (character) is composed of two components, each of which is composed of three stokes:
