Hanja refers to the Chinese characters used in the Korean language. They are an important component of Korean and are therefore of great interest to anyone wishing to learn the language. This manual contains a lexicon of the most important Hanja taught in Korean schools today. For each of these 1800 Hanja, several important word combinations and their German meanings are provided alongside the writing. The practical arrangement of the Hanja according to the number of strokes makes the entries easily accessible even for beginners. Several useful tables in the appendix, as well as the inclusion of a phonetic and a radical index, make this volume a fundamental reference work for advanced learners as well. This manual is rounded off with a glossary of Sino-Korean expressions.
