Problematic non-KLC kanji in Basho's journal oku no hosomichi


漢字 · かんじ

Aule Kanji Pages · Kanji Recog Pages

These 53 kanji in Bashō's journal Oku no hosomichi are not found in the KLC* book, but can be found in other Bashou haiku. Below is a list : a kanji with fnnnn has a freq <= 2500/2500 in newspapers, or I have given a Heisig index from Remembering The Kanji or the SKIP code(s) found at jisho.org on the web.

You will see below that nine (9) of the kanji only have a SKIP code : they will be problematic of a someone learning using Conning's KLC and Halpern's KLD even with a web resource.

Those are : 侘 俤 啼 壺 艸 虱 蜘 袂 鞋
