First of all, you need to find out what type of radical the character contains. 2. There are three types of radicals: a stroke type of radical, suchas »,-,| , ), \, etc.; radicals which are not simple characters, such as ‘_, , etc.; and simple characters, such as <, k, i, etc.. 3. To look up a character with no pinyin in a Chinese dictionary, we must take the following five steps: a) Find out the radical. b) Count its strokes, turn to the radical page and find the radical. c) According to the page number indicated by the radical, turn to that page. d) Count the strokes of the rest of the character, and locate the character in its group, which is organized by number of strokes with a page num: ber alongside. e) Turn to the page and find the character you want.
