Kanji Translated

Joint me final spreadsheet

In my earlier spreadsheet created from the Haynes index although very useful have some drawbacks

Using the Haynes Index, Wakayama (3 volumes)  and Keiko Meikan I have created a new spreadsheet called ‘Joint me final‘

There are six worksheets as described below

 

Mei Full

All the makers names from the Haynes Index, Wakayama (3 volumes)  and Keiko Meikan

 

Kanji count – For those that count the strokes used for each kanji

 

Kanji count print – All the kanji used in the three reference books that can be printed on one page

 

Brum mei all – All the signed tsuba in the Birmingham Museum

 

Mei probability – How often a kanji appears in a signature / Handy as the most used kanji can be learnt first

 

Sample Cards – A idea how a simple card system can be created

 

 

 

My earlier Haynes spreadsheet

 

Haynes Index – All the kanji used in the index

 

Haynes crib sheet – Explanation on using this spreadsheet

 

On’yomi & Kun’yomi – The main index has been split into two worksheets. These are described in the crib sheet

 

Basic radical used – For those that use radical when looking at component parts of a kanji

 

No asci – Some radical do not have a ascii code so the image of the radical is shown

 

Details – This was the information sent to Mr Haynes due to the kanji stoke differential and the Jisho web page I used as a reference

 

The original Haynes Index was put on the NMB and any member wanting a copy paid $10usd

 

To save Brian’s time PM me if you would like a copy and it would be nice to make a voluntary $10 donation to the NMB

Thanks for the files Grev. Can you explain how the mei probability works? Is there an easy way to get the translation/romanji of that kanji?

Hi Barry

The only full set of kanji was from the meikan index

I copped all the kanji and counted how often they occured

So the kanji that occured most often was:

光  at 77.8%

So this kanji occurred in approximately 3/4 of every mei

This is a guide only but for a beginner they can start learning the most common kanji

 

Not sure what you mean by this:

Is there an easy way to get the translation/romanji of that kanji?

But if you mean 光 then this = mitsu along with other names

If you copy any kanji and paste it into the 'find' option

Then open the 'mei full' worksheet and press find it will show all the translation for this kanji

 

Cut and find are the most useful tools within this spreadsheet

Please get back to me if this is unclear
