Henshall Japanese kanji (3 pages, revised)
I have revised the layout of several pages of the complete Henshall kanji set of 1,945.
- Sorted by UCS with url encoded value
- Sorted by Henshall book entry number
- Sorted by Unicode UTF-16
A typical row from the last would be

A page of basic ネ偏 nehen kanji : http://www.aule-browser.com/kanji/nehen-kanji.html
礼 社 祈

英 kanji compounds
http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E8%8B%B1#Compounds
The English wiktionary has some excellent pages for kanji compounds.
The page above is for 英
英気 (えいき, eiki)
英語 (えいご, eigo)
英国 (えいこく, eikoku)
英断 (えいだん, eidan)
英和 (えいわ, eiwa)
英知 (えいち, eichi)
英智 (えいち, Eichi)
英雄 (えいゆう, eiyū)
英霊 (えいれい, eirei)
石英 (せきえい, sekiei) quartz
I might add
英会話 (えいかいわ, eikaiwa)
English conversation ( and so, in context, such a school or course)
The page denshi jisho has several expressions ending in 英
Currently Google translate offers only 'British' in English for 英 and so that is all that can be given for other languages ( but even denshi jisho has anglais for French, but not britannique !)
Possibilities :
花咲く bloom, infloresence
輝かしい brilliant but see 賢い and several cognate expressions
compare: 開花

Unicode radicals for kanji 部首 ぶしゅ ブシュ
Wikipedia has a page of Unicode values for radicals.
But they have ⼿ for the tehen bushū or 部首 (ぶしゅ) when I am looking for the left-side component of Henshall 682 "pick up", i.e., 採 (サイ / と.る) which is 扌.
Another article says 扌 was added later as a "redundant semantic determinative."

Two-kanji Japanese terms
The actual title of these useful wiktionary pages is Japanese terms written with two Han script characters. Each entry is a link to a wiktionary lexicon entry.
I am thinking of writing a Rebol or Curl ( Curl, not cURL ) script to make these pages accept persistent annotations for mnemonics - and perhaps also user links.
Regardless, they are very useful: each page is 200 out of 13,473 ( I think that I will make that limit a user configuration item.)
I left my T-square hanging in the basement joists of a previous house. Here is the link to T-measuring-rule.
