The Table of Indexing Chinese Character Components[1] (simplified Chinese: 汉字部首表; traditional Chinese: 漢字部首表; pinyin: hànzì bùshǒu biǎo; lit. 'Chinese character radicals table') is a lexicographic tool used to order the Chinese characters in mainland China. The specification is also known as GF 0011-2009.
Chinese characters. A radical (Chinese: 部首; pinyin: bùshǒu; lit. 'section header'), or indexing component, is a visually prominent component of a Chinese character under which the character is traditionally listed in a Chinese dictionary. The radical for a character is typically a semantic component, but can also be another structural ...
The 14 simplified components in Chart 2 are never used alone as individual characters. They only serve as components. Example of derived simplification based on the component 𦥯, simplified to 𰃮 (), include: 學 → 学; 覺 → 觉; 黌 → 黉. Chart 1 collects 352 simplified characters that generally cannot be used as components.
A straightforward structural classification scheme may consist of three pure classes of semantographs, phonographs and signs —having only semantic, phonetic, and form components respectively, as well as classes corresponding to each combination of component types. [11] Of the 3500 characters that are frequently used in Standard Chinese, pure ...
The nested radicals in this solution cannot in general be simplified unless the cubic equation has at least one rational solution. Indeed, if the cubic has three irrational but real solutions, we have the casus irreducibilis , in which all three real solutions are written in terms of cube roots of complex numbers.
th root. In mathematics, an nth root of a number x is a number r (the root) which, when raised to the power of the positive integer n, yields x: The integer n is called the index or degree, and the number x of which the root is taken is the radicand. A root of degree 2 is called a square root and a root of degree 3, a cube root.
The debate on traditional Chinese characters and simplified Chinese characters is an ongoing dispute concerning Chinese orthography among users of Chinese characters. It has stirred up heated responses from supporters of both sides in mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, and among overseas Chinese communities with its implications of political ideology and cultural identity.

Distribution of the number of entries per radical in the Kangxi Dictionary. The Kangxi dictionary lists a total of 47,035 characters divided among the 214 radicals, for an average of 220 characters per radical; however, the distribution is unequal, with the median number of characters per radical being 64, the maximum number being 1,902 (for radical 140 艸), and the minimum being 5 (for ...
