Find Radical

Train your eye to recognize Chinese radicals

Find Radical turns character structure into a focused visual challenge. Each round presents one target radical and six Hanzi. Your task is to identify the three characters that contain it. Answers are checked immediately, while the mistake counter lets you follow your progress.

Working with radicals inside complete characters is more useful than memorizing an isolated list. It builds the habit of scanning a Hanzi for familiar components, makes look-alike characters easier to distinguish, and gives unfamiliar forms a clearer structure. If you need a reference before playing, explore the complete list of 214 Chinese radicals with meanings, pinyin, and audio.

Build a quick drill or a longer review

Keep pinyin visible when you want a reading cue, or hide it for a purely visual exercise. A registered Free account includes one radical and one round. PRO members can combine up to five radicals and choose 1, 3, 6, or 9 repetitions for each. Restarting the game creates a fresh set of characters, making repeated practice less predictable.

Create printable radical worksheets

PRO members can also generate an A4 PDF for offline practice or classroom use. Add pinyin, choose a page design, control its background and decorative elements, and include a separate answer section. A ready-made sample PDF is available if you would like to preview the worksheet format first.
