NAME

Unicode::Unihan - The Unihan Data Base 3.2.0

SYNOPSIS

use Unicode::Unihan;
my $db = new Unicode::Unihan;
print join("," => $db->Mandarin("\x{5c0f}\x{98fc}\x{5f3e}"), "\n";

ABSTRACT

This module provides a user-friendly interface to the Unicode Unihan Database 3.2. With this module, the Unihan database is as easy as shown in the SYNOPSIS above.

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 $db->tag($string) where tag is the tag in the Unihan Database, without 'k' prefix.

$data = $db->tag($string) =item @data = $db->tag($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')

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

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.

CompatibilityVariant*

The compatibility decomposition for this ideograph, derived from the UnicodeData.txt file.

Cowles*

The index of this character in Roy T. Cowles, _A Pocket Dictionary of Cantonese_, Hong Kong: University Press, 1999.

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.

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.

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 <http://www.wenlin.com>

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).
