Nota Bene

The encoding used in the subsequent pages are all in Unicode. You will need a Unicode enabled browser with both simplified and traditional character fonts.

Ideally, you should be using Internet Explorer 4 or Netscape 4 or better, and have fonts for Chinese characters installed for Chinese, Japanese and Korean.

Hi Folks, As the name suggest, this part of the site will discuss some topics about Hanzi or Chinese characters. There are a few more pages yet to write, but they shall have to wait a little, as I'm away for Spring 2001. I will be pleased if you could tell me of any errors anywhere on these pages by emailing me. An automatic reply will be sent to you from my temporary email address, but I shall personally reply to your post when I return to the net. Cheers, Dylan.
