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

KLC kanji without classic haiku poets for a mnemonic context

漢字 · かんじ

Aule Kanji Pages · Kanji Recog Pages

There remain 691 KLC* kanji needing a literary mnemonic context even after Shiki, Issa, Merwin's Buson and Basho have been scanned.

As I am seeing rapidly diminishing returns, contemporary tanka may not help : but I will try some recent short stories and novella.

Here is the set :

One example is this :

KLC 931,旨,purport (gist) which is Henshall 1312 or Heisig 455 or Kodansha Essential 232 and is a 2-2-4 SKIP code in Halpern or Tuttle 1077 (according to Denshi Jisho on-line.)

Wakan tool kanji tip

So I have copied a Japanese web page to my computer clipboard memory and now I have them displayed in Wakan using the "Character" menu choice for the clipboard content.  How do I now get a copy of any one of those unique and sorted kanji for a text search elsewhere ?

TIP : I display the UNICODE on the Wakan character details so I copy that 4-hex value and enter it into a CTRL-f search at http://kanji.aule-browser.com/henshall-sorted-urlencoded.html and very often get a hit and just copy that kanji from its row.

My next stop now that I have the kanji is often jisho.org

Why not just go to jisho and search by Unicode ? Because if I must do several kanji, I find that having the web page linked above open in a browser tab is simply faster - most often ... and the Henshall number is in plain view.

mahou bushu

The mahou.org radical select page for viewing kanji by bushu has proven more useful than I expected.

The 214 bushu page found at about.com is also useful, but rather different.  For example, at mahou.org I am able to treat take (bamboo) as a radical.

There is a terrific bushu page at denshi jisho which also allows multiple component radicals to be selected when looking for kanji. Once you have a set of results, you can click on each or mouse-over (if you have the Perapera dictionary plugin enabled - or a similar add-on.)
