Multilingual Dictionary of Indexing Terms

Table tips

Sorting the terms

To sort the terms for a particular language, select the toggle in the language’s column heading.

To return to the original sort order, refresh the page.

Note:

• Because the language of this website is English, words that begin with a diacritic (e.g. échange, índice) will be sorted to the end.
• Sorting the Japanese group unfortunately does not result in the order by radicals, reading order, or stroke count.

Viewing the columns

To change the languages displayed, select Columns in the tool bar at the top right of the table, and select or deselect languages.
