Kodansha KLC kanji found in Basho's Oku no hosomichi


漢字 · かんじ

Aule Kanji Pages · Kanji Recog Pages

Without regard for numerals and such trivia, only 884 of 2,288 kanji from the KLC 2,300 of Andrew Scott Conning were found in my version of Basho's oku no hosomichi travel journal "Narrow Road to the Interior."

That set of 1054 kanji is not an excellent match for a single text which is available online as there are another 170 kanji not found in KLC.

Here are the remaining kanji beyond the KLC set that remain without a mnemonic found explicitly in the Basho text:

也云什仍仭伽佛侘俤偖傳兎凌劔卅叡叢哉哥啄啼堵墅壺夷寞峯嵩嶋嶽巖帋幟幡庄庇廟廻廿恙惣愍憐憚應扣按捲摺撰擔敦斯曳曾朔朦朧杭柏栖桧梺棹椽樋樫橡欹歟毅汀泪洛浙淬渟渠湊潭濱瀧灸燈燧爰琵琶瑞甍硯碧礒禀禄穿竃竪笈笹筵篠篭簾籬羈翠耀而耶聊肴臥艸芦芭苔苫茄荊莫菅菩菰萩萬萱葡蒭蓑蔔蕉薩蘆處虱蚤蛤蜑蜘蝉蠶袂訥誹謂蹶輔辧逍逗鋪鍬鐙闍闢隈雉雎霽鞋鞍頽餘餞鯖鳧鴈鴬龍

You may already have spotted the name 芭蕉 in the set above !

I will check how many of these will match directly into other of his haiku ... online ... and I hit 53 which leaves me only 113 to track down elsewhere !  But are those 53 in, say, the frequent 3,000 for Halpern's KLD ?

也云伽侘俤兎叡哉啄啼壺夷嶽幟廟廻摺曾朧柏
樫橡燈琵琶硯穿竃笈篠簾肴臥艸芦芭苔茄萩蓑
蕉虱蚤蛤蜘蝉袂雉鞋鞍鴈鴬龍

Well, I recognize some of them and Denshi Jisho found them (max 20 at a time in a kanji search.)
