繁簡對照表 (總覽)

知繁識簡，繁簡對照 早已成了香港人熟練兩文三語的基本要求了。在基礎漢字500的課程中，其中有152個漢字有繁簡之別，平均每級都有30多個，即是全課程的三分之一。

我們將這些字都整理了一下，依級別及出現次序列了一份繁簡對照表，供大家參考。

You have heard of the different writing systems, namely the traditional version and the simplified version, in Chinese. Fortunately, not all of the characters are written differently one from the other. In the Basic Chinese 500 course, there are a total of 152 characters that have different written forms. That is about 1/3 of the whole course.

We have summarised all of these characters before, grouped into individual levels, for your reference.

現代漢語，是一種活生生、實用的語言。每天，分佈在世界各地每個角落的14億人們都在利用它作談天說地、談古說今、談空說有、談情說愛… 漢語和漢字也因應着各地、各人的習慣和需求在不斷演變。

也許你偏愛繁體字的雅典、傳情；也許你推崇簡體字的利落、便捷。

在教導和啟蒙孩子的時候，不妨繁簡對照從各種角度去認識這兩種寫法的長短處：

「學識」、「学识」- 哪種寫法比較快捷實際？
「旅遊」、「旅游」- 哪種寫法比較貼切會意的造字法？
「聽」、「听」- 繁體是耳部，有道理；簡體變了口部，不合理，但是能寫得很快，原來還和原始的甲骨文有所相似…

Language serves as a mean of communication. It evolves constantly, adapting to people’s needs and customs. Modern Chinese is being used by people living in all corners of the globe everyday, for all purposes. Both traditional and simplified versions are being used.

Some prefer the traditional writing and believe that it looks more classic and retains more of the original “sense” in the construction. Others prefer the ease and time-saving benefits of the simplified version.

It could be interesting to make comparison from various angles between these two writings systems when you teach your child.

Between 學識 and 学识 , which one is easier and faster to write
Between 旅遊 and 旅游 , which bushou (Chinese radical) reflects closer to the meaning of the character?
聽 and 听 both mean “to listen”. The traditional writing keeps the 耳 (ear) as bushou, which reflects the fact that we listen with our ears. The simplified version adopts 口 (mouth) as a bushou. While it might not seem to make much sense, but it can be written very quickly, and it also closely resembles the ancient writing.
