Kanji in Zhongwen not in RTK 1 + 3 - thecite - 2009-08-28
I plan on learning Chinese after Japanese, so I'm going to use Zhongwen after I've finished RTK3.
Is there a list going around with characters in it that aren't in RTK1 + 3?
If there isn't, would one of you dedicated list makers out there like to undertake this challenge and do all of us Kanji learners a massive favour. (Katsuo, I'm looking at you)

Do you have a list of all the characters in Zhongwen or know where I can get one? (I'm not studying Chinese myself).

Short of buying the book, you could go on the site: http://zhongwen.com/jintian.htm
then click on 'browse pinyin' and copy the characters for each sound. Other than those 2 slow processes, I don't think there's just a big list of all the characters anywhere. I certainly can't find one on his site, nor on google.

thecite Wrote:I don't think there's just a big list of all the characters anywhereI would need such a list first in order to make the list you mentioned in post #1.
Incidentally, did you see this post from a few days ago? Perhaps one of the lists seppukuh linked to covers similar ground.

When I go through the book then, I'll just make a list as I go along of ones outside of RTK3 and post it on the forums when I'm done. That's some months away yet though. About that other post; I guess I could learn all those eventually. What the heck. Gonna do something, do it completely.

Ha, ha, I have a list of zhongwen hanzi, but it's in my notebook.

I think such a list could be generated as there's a quick way to check if a hanzi is on zhongwen.com: search for it in google and add "site:zhongwen.com"
eg googling "注 site:zhongwen.com" turns up 2 results (you have to click on "repeat the search with the omitted results included" to show everything), and so it appears on zhongwen.com. That's the way I normally search the site.
I'm not sure about false negatives (ie failing this test but appearing on zhongwen.com) though, but if it's reliable enough you could get a big list of many many hanzi (eg a unicode encodings list or something) and write a script to test each one through this method.

I finally got bored looking things up on zhongwen.com, figured out the URL system and wrote a little bash script. You can find it here http://wargle.blogspot.com/2009/10/looking-up-kanjihanzi-quickly-on.html .

And just for fun, I've turned this into a Google App Engine app so there's no need for any technical knowledge:
