The radical–stroke sortkey (such as 金05), to sort the character in categories. No longer used: the sortkey is retrieved by Module:Hani-sortkey.

As usual, etymologies should be referenced. Shuowen Jiezi is a standard reference from the early 2nd century CE, and is valuable but sometimes inaccurate.

  • The overwhelming majority of Chinese characters (90+%) are phono-semantic compounds.
  • Beware of etymologies based on current forms (especially claims that a character is an ideogrammic compound) – the current form is often a simplification of an older form, which may not be related to the current components.
  • Richard Sears’s Chinese Etymology may prove a useful resource, showing older forms.
