It is intended to be largely self- 6 documenting, with each field being accompanied by an explanatory 7 comment. 8 9 The file covers the following kanji: 10 (a) the 6,355 kanji from JIS X 0208; 11 (b) the 5,801 kanji from JIS X 0212; 12 (c) the 3,625 kanji from JIS X 0213 as follows: 13 (i) the 2,741 kanji which are also in JIS X 0212 have 14 JIS X 0213 code-points (kuten) added to the existing entry; 15 (ii) the 884 "new" kanji have new entries. 16 17 At the end of the explanation for a number of fields there is a tag 18 with the format [N]. This indicates the leading letter(s) of the 19 equivalent field in the KANJIDIC and KANJD212 files. 20 21 The KANJIDIC documentation should also be read for additional 22 information about the information in the file. 23 --><!ELEMENT kanjidic2 (header , character*)> 24 <!ELEMENT header (file_version , database_version , date_of_creation)> 25 <!-- 26 The single header element will contain identification information 27 about the version of the file 28 --><!ELEMENT file_version (#PCDATA)> 29 <!-- 30 This field denotes the version of kanjidic2 structure, as more 31 than one version may exist. 32 --><!ELEMENT database_version (#PCDATA)> 33 <!-- 34 The version of the file, in the format YYYY-NN, where NN will be 35 a number starting with 01 for the first version released in a 36 calendar year, then increasing for each version in that year. 37 --><!ELEMENT date_of_creation (#PCDATA)> 38 <!-- 39 The date the file was created in international format (YYYY-MM-DD). 40 --><!ELEMENT character (literal , codepoint , radical , misc , dic_number? , query_code? , reading_meaning? , nanori?)*> 41 <!ELEMENT literal (#PCDATA)> 42 <!-- 43 The character itself in UTF8 coding. 44 --><!ELEMENT codepoint (cp_value)+> 45 <!-- 46 The codepoint element states the code of the character in the various 47 character set standards. 48 --><!ELEMENT cp_value (#PCDATA)> 49 <!-- 50 The cp_value contains the codepoint of the character in a particular 51 standard. The standard will be identified in the cp_type attribute. 52 --><!ATTLIST cp_value cp_type CDATA #REQUIRED> 53 <!-- 54 The cp_type attribute states the coding standard applying to the 55 element.

The particular 64 classification type is stated in the rad_type attribute. 65 --><!ATTLIST rad_value rad_type CDATA #REQUIRED> 66 <!-- 67 The rad_type attribute states the type of radical classification. 68 classical - as recorded in the KangXi Zidian. 69 nelson - as used in the Nelson "Modern Japanese-English 70 Character Dictionary" (i.e. the Classic, not the New Nelson). 71 This will only be used where Nelson reclassified the kanji. 72 --><!ELEMENT misc (grade? , stroke_count+ , variant* , freq* , rad_name*)> 73 <!ELEMENT grade (#PCDATA)> 74 <!-- 75 The Jouyou Kanji grade level. 1 through 6 indicate the grade in which 76 the kanji is taught in Japanese schools. 8 indicates it is one of the 77 remaining Jouyou Kanji to be learned in junior high school, and 9 78 indicates it is a Jinmeiyou (for use in names) kanji. [G] 79 --><!ELEMENT stroke_count (#PCDATA)> 80 <!-- 81 The stroke count of the kanji, including the radical. If more than 82 one, the first is considered the accepted count, while subsequent ones 83 are common miscounts. (See Appendix E. of the KANJIDIC documentation 84 for some of the rules applied when counting strokes in some of the 85 radicals.)

The 2,500 most-used characters have a 105 ranking; those characters that lack this field are not ranked. The 106 frequency is a number from 1 to 2,500 that expresses the relative 107 frequency of occurrence of a character in modern Japanese. This is 108 based on a survey in newspapers, so it is biassed towards kanji 109 used in newspaper articles. The discrimination between the less 110 frequently used kanji is not strong. 111 --><!ELEMENT rad_name (#PCDATA)> 112 <!-- 113 When the kanji is itself a radical and has a name, this element 114 contains the name (in hiragana.) [T2] 115 --><!ELEMENT dic_number (dic_ref)+> 116 <!-- 117 This element contains the index numbers and similar unstructured 118 information such as page numbers in a number of published dictionaries, 119 and instructional books on kanji. 120 --><!ELEMENT dic_ref (#PCDATA)> 121 <!-- 122 Each dic_ref contains an index number.

[P] 182 183 sh_desc - the descriptor codes for The Kanji Dictionary (Tuttle 184 1996) by Spahn and Hadamitzky. They are in the form nxnn.n, 185 e.g. 3k11.2, where the kanji has 3 strokes in the 186 identifying radical, it is radical "k" in the SH 187 classification system, there are 11 other strokes, and it is 188 the 2nd kanji in the 3k11 sequence. (I am very grateful to 189 Mark Spahn for providing the list of these descriptor codes 190 for the kanji in this file.) [I] 191 four_corner - the "Four Corner" code for the kanji. This is a code 192 invented by Wang Chen in 1928. See the KANJIDIC documentation 193 for an overview of the Four Corner System. [Q] 194 195 deroo - the codes developed by the late Father Joseph De Roo, and 196 published in his book "2001 Kanji" (Bojinsha). Fr De Roo 197 gave his permission for these codes to be included. [DR] 198 misclass - a possible misclassification of the kanji according 199 to one of the code types.

[Y] 223 korean_r - the romanized form of the Korean reading(s) of the 224 kanji. The readings are in the (Republic of Korea) Ministry 225 of Education style of romanization. [W] 226 korean_h - the Korean reading(s) of the kanji in hangul. 227 ja_on - the "on" Japanese reading of the kanji, in katakana.
