The most common Chinese characters in order of
frequency
If you wonder why there are less than 3000 characters in the list, or have other
questions, please read the introduction!
All characters are presented in falling statistical order with the most commonlyused characters first.Alternative forms of the characters are specified within parentheses– in which case "F" marks full (or traditional) forms, "S" marks
simplified (or modern) forms and "A" marks alternative forms (mostly
special numerals).
Pronunciations are specified according to Pinyin and written within brackets"[...]". After each given pronunciation, a number of possible translations arelisted. If a character corresponds closely to a somewhat longer word (usually aword that contains the character in question), the longer word is given in thelist of translations marked with parentheses and a "=".After the translation of each character, example words containing thecharacter are often listed – these words are separated by semi commas. Noguarantee is given that all the most common words are listed or that the givenexamples are very common.Some of the listed pronunciations are less used than others, and in thosecases translations and examples may lack.Grammatical particles, classifiers and other special translations are markedwith hooks "<...>".Curly brackets "{...}" are mostly used when giving references to charactersthat are similar to the listed ones either in shape. This is to help you avoidmiswriting/misreading. The same marking is also used for references tocharacters with similar meaning but different pronunciation.Additional information of other sorts is sometimes given.If the characters are not displayed correctly, verify that the encoding is set toGB2312.
