Position profile

Where 迅 appears in recorded name spellings

Position counts are calculated from source-recorded JMnedict forms included in the public reference. A spelling containing the same kanji more than once can contribute to more than one position category, so the position counts are not percentages and do not need to sum to the total.

Evidence on this page

Character data and name data stay separate

KANJIDIC2 supplies the readings, nanori, stroke count, frequency field, grade classification and English character glosses. JMnedict supplies the example personal-name records. The Ministry of Justice remains the official reference for current child-name character rules.

Source boundary

KANJIDIC2 supplies the character metadata. The jōyō/jinmeiyō grade interpretation is a reference layer; the Ministry of Justice remains the controlling official source for child-name character rules. Example names are imported from JMnedict.
