How does a radical index work in a Chinese dictionary and how can i identify a characters radical?
Q. I am learning chinese and have just got a chinese dictonary from Collins I have read the explanition on how to use the radical index several times and I still dont understand it. How do i use it correctly and also how do you work out the radical of each character they all look like they have several of them? Which I assume is not right they must only have one radical surely.

A. Let's explain with an example using the character (qiu1) which means autumn. If you look in the dictionary, (5 strokes) and (4 strokes) are radicals on their own. So how do you decide which is the correct radical? When a character is made up of parts sitting side by side, you look at the LEFT radical FIRST, if you cannot find it in the dictionary, then look at the RIGHT radical. Now we look at another example with (lu4) which means dew or exposed. This character has two radicals which can either be (8 strokes) or (7 strokes). When a character is made up of a top part and a bottom part as in and , look at the TOP radical FIRST. As in (xiang4) which means elephant (made up of a top and bottom), you cannot find a radical… [cont.]

A. 1. Add content Add content, add content, and add content. Before you even register your domain, you should have enough ideas to build 100 pages on your site. Start brainstorming and see what you can come up with in 10 minutes. If that's not enough to fill 50 pages, consider not building the site at all. Having lots of content is important. 2. A simple design is better Text content should outweigh the html content. Stay away from heavy flash, java, JavaScript, etc. Don't add to much stuff like 'best viewed with'... Your website should be viewable with any browser. Keep it clean and professional. 3. Keep the pages small Smaller is better. Keep it under 15k if you can. Your site should be fast loading, or people will leave. Speed is… [cont.]

A. Since I can't put a drawing here, but have to do it in words, and am less articulate than I like, I will give you the first step along the way, then explain where to go from there. I suggest that you simply draw what I describe, not start cutting, unless you have lots of cards. Usually index cards are 3.5" x 5" Place the card in front of you with the 5" sides going right/left and the 3" sides to/away. Starting from the center of the left hand 3" side, make a cut going 3.5" to the right. Sorry, but I gotta use (x,y) notation to put this in text. Now make a U shaped cut, from (.75,2.25) to (4.25, 2.25) to 4.25, .75) to (.75, .75). This cut never touches the edge of the card, nor does it touch the first horizontal cut. This cut forms… [cont.]
