| Abstract | Considering the problems faced by learners of Japanese from non-kanji background, the present paper discusses the characteristics of 15 existing kanji dictionary indexes. In order to compare the relative efficiency of these indexes, the concept of selectivity is defined, and the selectivity coefficient of the kanji indexes is computed and compared. Furthermore, new indexes developed by the present authors and based on an alphabetical code, a symbol code, a semantic code, and a radical and stroke number code are presented and their use and efficiency are explained.-----Pričujoči članek obravnava lastnosti 15 obstoječih kazal v slovarjih kitajskih pismenk z vidika težav učencev japonščine kot tujega jezika in kitajskih pismenk kot tujega sistema pisave. Da bi primerjali relativno učinkovitost teh kazal, definiramo koncept izbirnosti ter izračunamo in primerjamo koeficient izbirnosti teh kazal. Nadalje predlagamo in predstavljamo rabo in učinkovitost novih kazal, ki smo jih osnovali na kodiranju z latiničnimi črkami, simbolnem kodiranju, semantičnem kodiranju in kodiranju na osnovi pomenskega ključa in števila potez. |
