The Kangxi Radicals Unicode block includes characters used in traditional Chinese dictionaries to categorize and organize Chinese characters. Named after the Kangxi Dictionary, which is a comprehensive dictionary of Chinese characters compiled during the Qing Dynasty, this block contains 214 radicals (or components) that serve as the building blocks for more complex characters. These radicals are essential for understanding and organizing the structure of Chinese characters, as they often hint at the meaning or pronunciation of the characters they appear in.
