Radical 212, 龍, 龙, or 竜 meaning "dragon", is one of only two of the 214 Kangxi radicals that are composed of 16 strokes. The character arose as a stylized drawing of a Chinese dragon, and refers to a version of the dragon in each East Asian culture: *Chinese dragon, ''Lóng'' in Chinese *Japanese dragon, ''Ryū'' or ''Tatsu'' in Japanese *Korean dragon, ''Ryong'' or ''Yong'' in Korean *Vietnamese dragon, ''Rồng'' in Vietnamese It may also refer to the Dragon as it appears in the Chinese zodiac. It is used as the symbol for Tatsu, a roller coaster at Six Flags Magic Mountain, in California. In the Kangxi Dictionary there are only 14 characters (out of 40,000) to be found under this radical. It occurs as a phonetic complement in some fairly common Chinese characters, for example 聾 = "deaf", which is composed of 龍 "dragon" and the "ear" 耳 radical, 耳, pronounced similarly to 龍: "dragon gives sound, ear gives meaning". ==Characters with Radical 212== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Radical 212」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
