What’s different about Laokang Character Conquerer:

Covers all 170 root words (components) in the language.

Gives the ancient meaning of these roots.

Groups the roots into 10 manageable categories (e.g. “Animals” and “Earth/sky”).

Describes how the shape of the root components relates to their meanings.

Prepares you to use Laokang Lookup to find any official character in the Chinese language based on partial knowledge of the character.

Note:

This app is focused on simplified Characters, which have been in use in Mainland China since 1954. The app is useful for traditional characters (in use in Hong Kong and Taiwan), but is not complete with respect to them.

One character can mean several different things. “Tree,” “wood” and “things made of wood,” for example, are all represented by the same character. This app does not attempt to give you an exhaustive list of all meanings, rather we select the one definition which is most representative. Likewise, we have selected older meanings of certain roots, because that is more useful when trying to understand how those roots are combined into other words. The word for “car,” for example, we define as “cart”.
