Étymologie et composants

The Chinese word "汉字" (Hànzì) is a compound of two characters: "汉" (Hàn) and "字" (zì). The character "汉" refers to the Han dynasty (206 BCE - 220 CE), a period of great cultural and political significance in Chinese history. During this time, the Chinese writing system underwent significant development and standardization, leading to the creation of the characters that are still used today. The character "字" (zì) means "character" or "word".Therefore, the term "汉字" can be literally translated as "Han characters" or "Chinese characters". It is used to refer to the writing system used in China, as well as in other countries and regions influenced by Chinese culture, such as Japan, Korea, and Vietnam.
