Table of Indexing Chinese Character Components

The Table of Indexing Chinese Character Components[1] (simplified Chinese: 汉字部首表; traditional Chinese: 漢字部首表; pinyin: hànzì bùshǒu biǎo; lit. 'Chinese character radicals table') is a lexicographic tool used to order the Chinese characters in mainland China. The specification is also known as GF 0011-2009.

In China's normative documents, "radical" is defined as any component or 偏旁 piānpáng of Chinese characters, while 部首 is translated as "indexing component".[2]
