List of kanji radicals by frequency
This is a simplified table of Japanese kanji visual components (graphemes) that does away with all the archaic forms found in the Japanese version of the Kangxi radicals.
The 214 Kanji radicals are technically classifiers as they are not always etymologically correct,[1] but since linguistics uses that word in the sense of "classifying" nouns (such as in counter words), dictionaries commonly call the kanji components radicals. As dictionaries have moved from textbooks to interactive screens, the term "radicals" seems to now be used for any kanji component used in a visual search.
Most common radicals
The six radicals that occur the most frequently[2] (in order of frequency)[3] and make up 25% of the 2136 Jōyō kanji:

Table of kanji radicals
Table key
Position category:
- へん (hen) - left ◧ - radical forms the left component of a kanji.
- つくり (tsukuri) - right ◨ - radical forms the right component of a kanji.
- かんむり (kanmuri) - top ⊤ - radical forms the top component of a kanji.
- あし (ashi) - bottom ⊥ - radical forms the bottom component of a kanji.
- かまえ (kamae) - wrap ⿴ - radical encloses the other kanji components.
- たれ (tare) - top-left ⿸ - radical forms the left and top components of a kanji.
- にょう (nyou) - bottom-left ⿺ - radical forms the left and bottom component of a kanji.
- Either left or right ◫ - radical can form either the left or right component of a kanji.
Notes
- This is a simplified list, so the reading of the radical is only given if the kanji is used on its own.
- Example kanji for each radical are all jōyō kanji, but some examples show all jōyō (ordered by stroke number) while others were from the Chinese radicals page with non-jōyō (and Chinese-only) characters removed.
- No radicals with more than 12 strokes are listed as they are not as common and can all be formed from the other components.
- The radicals are listed in the same basic order that the Kangxi radicals are listed except for the two and three-stroke radicals which are in a more visual order.

Other combinations
Variations of this table
Many other combinations could realistically be called a simplified table of kanji radicals, here are a few examples.
- 䒑 could replace both 丷 and 艹
- ⺈ could be merged with 刀 or 勹 (not commonly used as a radical by itself)
- 聿 or 書 could be used instead of ⺻
Entries with an upside-down exclamation mark (¡) are possibly made up "radicals," meaning only one online dictionary was found to use them (Tangorin Online).
Possible additions: (Note that the examples below show all the jōyō kanji examples)
