Re: [idn] Question for the Kanji & Hanja cognosentee

Ms. Ydisg,

Is there a typo right about ...

                                    here or here or here or here?

OK. I've found what had surprised me, simplified (Japan) Chinese characters.
I'll assume that simplified (Korea) Chinese characters also exist. Ditto for
Vietnamese.

The Chinese I learned as a kid (TC) and the Chinese I learned in Beijing (SC),
clearly isn't all the TC or SC available to choose from, so now I have a better
understanding of the original comment.

Thanks for your assistance,
Eric
