With this module, the Unihan database is as easy as shown in the SYNOPSIS above. =head1 DESCRIPTION The first thing you do is make the database available. Just say use Unicode::Unihan; my $db = new Unicode::Unihan; That's all you have to say. After that, you can access the database via $db-EI($string) where I is the tag in the Unihan Database, without 'k' prefix. =over 4 =item $data = $db-EI($string) =item @data = $db-EI($string) The first form (scalar context) returns the Unihan Database entry of the first character in $string. The second form (array context) checks the entry for each character in $string. @data = $db->Mandarin("\x{5c0f}\x{98fc}\x{5f3e}"); # @data is now ('SHAO4 XIAO3','SI4','DAN4') @data = $db->JapaneseKun("\x{5c0f}\x{98fc}\x{5f3e}"); # @data is now ('CHIISAI KO O','KAU YASHINAU','TAMA HAZUMU HIKU') =back =head1 SEE ALSO =over 2 =item L =item L =item The Unihand Database, in Text L =back =head1 AUTHOR For the Module: Dan Kogai Edankogai@home.dan.intraE For the Source Data: Unicode, Inc. =head1 COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE For the Module Copyright 2002 by Dan Kogai, All rights reserved.

This incorporates data from the file cangjie-table.b5 by Christian Wittern =item Cantonese The Cantonese pronunciation(s) for this character The romanization used is a modified version of the Yale romanization, modified as follows: (1) No effort is made to distinguish between Yale's "high level" and "high falling" tones, which are not universally reflected in all Cantonese romanizations and which appear to be no longer distinctive in Hong Kong Cantonese. As a general rule, syllables which end with a stop (p, t, or k) have the "high level" tone; but there are numerous exceptions. (2) Digits 1-6 are used to indicate the tones -- 1 == High level/high falling 2 == High rising 3 == Middle level 4 == Low falling 5 == Low rising 6 == Low level (3) Accordingly, the letter "H" is *not* used as a tone indicator Cantonese pronunciations are sorted alphabetically, not in order of frequency =item CihaiT* The position of this character in the Cihai (\x{8fad}\x{6d77}) dictionary, single volume edition, published in Hong Kong by the Zhonghua Bookstore, 1983 (reprint of the 1947 edition), ISBN 962-231-005-2. The position is indicated by a decimal number. The digits to the left of the decimal are the page number. The first digit after the decimal is the row on the page, and the remaining two digits after the decimal are the position on the row. =item CompatibilityVariant* The compatibility decomposition for this ideograph, derived from the UnicodeData.txt file. =item Cowles* The index of this character in Roy T. Cowles, _A Pocket Dictionary of Cantonese_, Hong Kong: University Press, 1999. =item DaeJaweon The position of this character in the Dae Jaweon (Korean) dictionary used in the four-dictionary sorting algorithm. The position is in the form "page.position" with the final digit in the position being "0" for characters actually in the dictionary and "1" for characters not found in the dictionary and assigned a "virtual" position in the dictionary. Thus, "1187.060" indicates the sixth character on page 1187. A character not in this dictionary but assigned a position between the 6th and 7th characters on page 1187 for sorting purposes would have the code "1187.061" The edition used is the first edition, published in Seoul by Samseong Publishing Co., Ltd., 1988. =item Definition An English definition for this character =item EACC The EACC mapping for this character in hex =item Fenn* Data on the character from _Fenn's Chinese-English Pocket Dictionary_ by Courtenay H. Fenn, Cambridge, Mass.: Harvard University Press, 1942. The data here consists of a decimal number followed by a letter A through K. The decimal number gives the Soothill number for the character's phonetic, and the letter is a rough frequency indication, with A indicating the 500 most common ideographs, B the next five hundred, and so on. =item Frequency A rough fequency measurement for the character based on analysis of Chinese USENET postings =item GB0 The GB 2312-80 mapping for this character in ku/ten form =item GB1 The GB 12345-90 mapping for this character in ku/ten form =item GB3 The GB 7589-87 mapping for this character in ku/ten form =item GB5 The GB 7590-87 mapping for this character in ku/ten form =item GB7 The "General Use Characters for Modern Chinese" mapping for this character =item GB8 The GB 8565-89 mapping for this character in ku/ten form =item GradeLevel* The grade in the Hong Kong school system by which a student is expected to know the character. =item HanYu The position of this character in the Hanyu Da Zidian (HDZ) Chinese character dictionary (bibliographic information below). The character references are given in the form "ABCDE.XYZ", in which: "A" is the volume number [1..8]; "BCDE" is the zero-padded page number [0001..4809]; "XY" is the zero-padded number of the character on the page [01..32]; "Z" is "0" for a character actually in the dictionary, and greater than 0 for a character assigned a "virtual" position in the dictionary. For example, 53044.060 indicates an actual HDZ character, the 6th character on Page 3,044 of Volume 5 (i.e. [U+269a4]). Note that the Volume 8 "BCDE" references are in the range [0008..0044] inclusive, referring to the pagination of the "Appendix of Addendum" at the end of that volume (beginning after p. 5746). Release information: This data set contains a total of 56097 records, 54728 of which are actual HDZ character references (positions are given for all HDZ head entries, including source-internal unifications), and 1369 of which are virtual character positions (see note below). All HDZ references in this data set are unique. Because of IRG source-internal unifications, a given UCS-4 Scalar Value (USV) may have more than one HDZ reference. Source-internal unifications are of two types: (1) unifications of graphical variants; (2) unifications of duplicate head entries. The proofing of all references was done primarily on the basis of cross-checks of three versions of the reference data: (1) the original print source; (2) the "kIRGHanyuDaZidian" field of Unihan.txt (release 3.1.1d1); (3) "HDZ.txt", originally produced and proofed for Academia Sinica's Institute of Information Technology (Document Processing Laboratory). In addition, the data was checked against the "kHanYu" and "kAlternateHanYu" fields of Unihan.txt (release 3.1.1d1), which the present data set supersedes. String value, string length, compound key, field count, and page total validations were all performed. Altogether, 578 omissions/ errors in source (2) were identified/corrected. Any remaining errors will likely relate to virtual positions, or to the ordering of actual characters within a given page. It is unlikely that errors across page breaks remain. Possible future deunifications of source-internal unifications will necessitate update of USV for some references. Under no circumstances should the source-internal unification (duplicate USV) mappings be removed from this data set. Note: Source (3) contributed only actual HDZ character references to the proofing process, while source (2) contributed all virtual positions. It seems that the compilers of source (2) usually assigned virtual positions based on stroke count, though occasionally the virtual position brings the virtual character together with the actual HDZ character of which it is a variant, without regard to actual stroke count.

The 25330 character references are given in the form "ABC.XY", in which: "ABC" is the zero-padded page number [004..546]; "XY" is the zero-padded number of the character on the page [01..73]. For example, 364.38 indicates the 38th character on Page 364 (i.e. \x{6f8d}). Where a given Unicode Scalar Value (USV) has more than one reference, these are space-delimited. Release information (20020310): This data set contains a total of 25330 references, for 19511 different hanzi. The original data was input under the direction of Prof. LUO Fengzhu at Taiwan Taoyuanxian Yuan Zhi University (see below) using an early version of the Big5-based CDP encoding scheme developed at Academia Sinica. During 2000-2002 this raw data was processed and revised by Richard Cook as follows: the data was converted to Unicode encoding using his revised kHanYu mapping tables (first provided to the Unicode Consortium for the Unihan.txt release 3.1.1d1) and also using several other mapping tables developed specifically for this project; the kSBGY indices were generated based on hand-counts of all page totals; numerous indexing errors were corrected; and the data underwent final proofing. About the print sources: The SBGY text, which dates to the beginning of the Song Dynasty (c. 1008, edited by \x{9673}\x{5f6d}\x{5e74} CHEN Pengnian et al.) is an enlargement of an earlier text known as Qie Yun (dated to c. 601, edited by \x{9678}\x{6cd5}\x{8a00} LU Fayan). With 25,330 head entries, this large early lexicon is important in part for the information which it provides for historical Chinese phonology. The GY dictionary employs a Chinese transcription method (known as \x{53cd}\x{5207}) to give pronunciations for each of its head entries. In addition, each syllable is also given a brief gloss. It must be emphasized that the mapping of a particular SBGY glyph to a single USV may in some cases be merely an approximation or may have required the choice of a "best possible glyph" (out of those available in the Unicode repertoire). This indexing data in conjunction with the print sources will be useful for evaluating the degree of distinctive variation in the character forms appearing in this text, and future proofing of this data may reveal additional Chinese glyphs for IRG encoding.

Cook . =item SimplifiedVariant The Unicode value for the simplified Chinese variant for this character (if any). Note that a character can be *both* a traditional Chinese character in its own right *and* the simplified variant for other characters (e.g., U+53F0). In such case, the character is listed as its own simplified variant and one of its own traditional variants. This distinguishes this from the case where the character is not the simplified form for any character (e.g., U+4E95). Much of the of the data on simplified and traditional variants was supplied by Wenlin =item SpecializedSemanticVariant The Unicode value for a specialized semantic variant for this character. A specialized semantic variant is an x- or y-variant with similar or identical meaning only in certain contexts (such as accountants' numerals). =item TaiwanTelegraph The Taiwanese telegraph code for this character, derived from "Kanzi denpou koudo henkan-hyou" ("Chinese character telegraph code conversion table"), Lin Jinyi, KDD Engineering and Consulting, Tokyo, 1984 =item Tang* The Tang dynasty pronunciation(s) of this character, derived from _T'ang Poetic Vocabulary_ by Hugh M. Stimson, Far Eastern Publications, Yale Univ. 1976. Stimson's romanization has been modified as follows: The tones are indicated using numerals 1 through 4. Stimson leaves the level (tone 1) and entering (tone 4) tones unmarked (the latter being found in syllables ending in a stop, -p, -t, or -k), uses a hacek accent for the rising tone (tone 2), and a grave accent the departing tone (tone 3) Stimson's script a (\x{0251}, U+0251) is replaced with a-umlaut (\x{00e4}, U+00E4) Stimson's open e (\x{025b}, U+025B) is replaced with e-umlaut (\x{00eb}, U+00EB) Stimson's schwa (\x{0259}, U+0259) is replaced with e-circumflex (\x{00ea}, U+00EA) =item TotalStrokes The total number of strokes in the character (including the radical) =item TraditionalVariant The Unicode value(s) for the traditional Chinese variant(s) for this character. Note that a character can be *both* a traditional Chinese character in its own right *and* the simplified variant for other characters (e.g., U+53F0). In such case, the character is listed as its own simplified variant and one of its own traditional variants. This distinguishes this from the case where the character is not the simplified form for any character (e.g., U+4E95). Much of the of the data on simplified and traditional variants was supplied by Wenlin Institute, Inc. =item Vietnamese The character's pronunciation(s) in Qu\x{1ed1}c ng\x{1eef} =item Xerox The Xerox code for this character =item ZVariant The Unicode value(s) for known z-variants of this character =back =head2 ACCURACY OF THE DATA: Not all of these fields have been checked and proofed as carefully as some others have been. Please report errata, corrections, and additions at . The following fields may be taken as completely accurate and their values are *normative* parts of Unicode and ISO/IEC 10646-1 and -2: kIRG_GSource, kIRG_TSource, kIRG_JSource, kIRG_KSource, kIRG_KPSource, kIRG_VSource The IRG dictionary fields have also been extensively proofed by IRG experts and may be taken as accurate. The following fields have been extensively proofed by experts world-wide and may be taken as accurate: kBigFive, kCNS1986, kGB0, kGB1, kGB3, kGB5, kGB7, kGB8, kJis0, kJis1, kJIS0213, kKSC0, kKSC1, kPseudoGB1, kCCCII, kCNS1992, kDaeJaweon, kHanYu, kIBMJapan, kKangXi, kMatthews, kMorohashi, kNelson, kXerox The remaining fields have not been as extensively proofed and their values should be taken as provisional. Some of these fields are still in the process of being populated; more data will be available in future releases of this file. Such fields are marked in this header with an asterisk (*). =head2 KNOWN ERRORS: U+6B06 should map to the kIRG_KSource 2-3D7B, not 7-3D7B. This error is in a normative part of the standard; the relevant standards bodies are aware of it, but we cannot fix it in this file until the fix is officially adopted U+2F958 should map to the kIRG_TSource 6-4267, not 6-4627. This error is in a normative part of the standard; the relevant standards bodies are aware of it, but we cannot fix it in this file until the fix is officially adopted The Japanese and Korean readings need to be normalized. The Mandarin vowel \x{00dc} is not consistently represented as pinyin requires =cut
