The Origins and Structure of Kanji: Exploring Radicals (Hen, Tsukuri, Kanmuri, and More)

This insightful book offers an in-depth exploration into the fascinating origins and structural components of Kanji characters. It meticulously dissects how Kanji are formed by their constituent radicals, known as 'bushu', and provides detailed insights into the eight fundamental types: Hen (left), Tsukuri (right), Kanmuri (top), Kashira (top-left), Ashi (bottom), Tare (enclosing from top-left), Kamae (surrounding), and Nyou (bottom-left). Ideal for Japanese language learners or anyone interested in the etymology and mechanics of written Japanese, this volume serves as an invaluable reference for understanding the building blocks of the language. Note: The text is entirely in Japanese. Brand New Japanese Edition.
