Kyōiku kanji

Kyōiku kanji (教育漢字, literally "education kanji"), also known as Gakunenbetsu kanji haitōhyō (学年別漢字配当表, literally "list of kanji by school year") is a list of 1,026 kanji and associated readings developed and maintained by the Japanese Ministry of Education that prescribes which kanji, and which readings of kanji, Japanese students should learn from first grade to the sixth grade (elementary school). Although the list is designed for Japanese students, it can also be used as a sequence of learning characters by non-native speakers as a means of focusing on the most commonly used kanji.

Kyōiku kanji is a subset (1,026) of the 2,136 characters of Jōyō kanji.

Special characters

Kokuji

Kokuji are characters originally created in Japan; two of them are kyōiku kanji: 働 (Grade 4) and 畑 (Grade 3). There are also 8 kokuji within the secondary-school kanji and 16 within the jinmeiyō kanji. The character 働 and some others are also used in Chinese now, but most kokuji are unknown outside Japan.

Kokkun

Kokkun are characters and combinations of characters that have different meanings in Japanese and Chinese.

For example, the character combination 手紙 means "letter" in Japanese, but "toilet paper" in Chinese. However, the isolated characters have the same meaning in both languages: 手 (Grade 1) means "hand," and 紙 (Grade 2) means "paper."

Simplified characters and their traditional forms

See also shinjitai and kyūjitai.

Differences in simplification between China and Japan

China and Japan simplified their writing systems independently from each other. After World War II, their relations were hostile, so they did not cooperate. Traditional Chinese characters are still officially used in Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, South Korea (as a supplement to Hangul, but they are no longer used in North Korea), and by many overseas Chinese.
In Chinese, many more characters were simplified than in Japanese; some characters were simplified in only one language; other characters were simplified in the same way in both languages, and other characters were simplified in both languages but in different ways. This means that those who want to learn the writing systems of both languages must sometimes learn at least three different variations of one character: traditional Chinese, simplified Chinese, and modern Japanese (for example 兩 - 两 - 両), some others have more variations, such as (斗 - 鬥 - 鬭 - 鬬 - 鬪 - 鬦 - 闘 - 閗), where are considered the older forms of Chinese characters and variations of different Chinese regions, and the older forms of Japanese characters (kyūjitai).

	Traditional Chinese	Simplified Chinese	Modern Japanese
Group 1: No simplification in both languages	田	田	田
Group 2: Same simplification in both languages	萬	万	万
Group 3: Simplified in Chinese only	門	门	門
Group 4: Simplified in Japanese only	佛	佛	仏
Group 5: Different simplifications in Chinese and Japanese	兩	两	両

Traditional characters that may cause problems displaying

Note that within the kyōiku kanji, there are 26 characters; the old forms of which may cause problems displaying:

• Grade 2 (2 kanji): 海 社
• Grade 3 (8 kanji): 勉 暑 漢 神 福 練 者 都
• Grade 4 (6 kanji): 器 殺 祝 節 梅 類
• Grade 5 (1 kanji): 祖
• Grade 6 (9 kanji): 勤 穀 視 署 層 著 諸 難 朗
• Within the jōyō kanji, the same is true for 36 secondary-school kanji, so, in total, 62 of the 2,136 jōyō kanji have traditional forms that may cause problems displaying.

These characters are Unicode CJK Unified Ideographs for which the old form (kyūjitai) and the new form (shinjitai) have been unified under the Unicode standard. Although the old and new forms are distinguished under the JIS X 0213 standard, the old forms map to Unicode CJK Compatibility Ideographs which are considered by Unicode to be canonically equivalent to the new forms and may not be distinguished by user agents. Therefore, depending on the user environment, it may not be possible to see the distinction between old and new forms of the characters. In particular, all Unicode normalization methods merge the old characters with the new ones.

List of the simplified kyōiku kanji

For example, 万 is the simplified form of 萬. Note that 弁 is used to simplify three different traditional characters (辨, 瓣, and 辯).

The kyōiku kanji and their Chinese hànzì equivalents

The characters are sorted by the radicals of the Japanese kanji. The two kokuji 働 and 畑, which have no Chinese equivalents, are not listed here. See also the section "Differences in simplification between China and Japan."

Same form in Chinese and Japanese

The following kyōiku kanji are characters of Group 1 (not simplified in both languages, e.g. 田). For characters of Group 2 (same simplification in China and Japan, but a traditional form exists, e.g. 万-萬-万), see "Different forms in Chinese and Japanese."
