| − | In dictionaries organized by the traditional 214 Kangxi radicals | + | The characters 夊() suī and 夂() zhǐ are distinct in Shuōwén (and are distinct radicals). In later dictionaries organized by the traditional 214 Kangxi (KX) radicals they are also distinct radicals. The 35th radical 夊() suī is distinguished from the 34th radical 夂() zhǐ, although they are generally both written 夂 today, especially when used as a component. In general, when 夂 occurs at the top of a character, it is assigned to radical 34 (夂 zhǐ); but at the bottom, it is assigned to radical 35 (夊 suī). Compare 攵(攴) pū ‘beat’ (KX radical 66) which has four strokes (and typically occurs on the right), but may be abbreviated to only three strokes when used as a character component. |
