chữ Hán vs. chữ Nôm question
Hello! I have a question about Vietnamese writing; I want to make sure I am using the correct terminology.

My understanding is as follows: "chữ Hán" is the Vietnamese term for "Chinese characters". It refers to characters in general, while "chữ Nôm" refers to the writing system at-large. The corresponding terms being as follows:


 * Written Chinese, chữ Nôm, Japanese writing system, Korean writing system
 * Chinese characters, chữ Hán, kanji, hanja

Cheers! Remsense 诉  19:42, 15 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Yes, chữ Hán is the common term for Chinese characters. It is composed of chữ 𫳘 "character" and Hán 漢 "Han Chinese". It could also mean Chinese script too as chữ could also mean "script", an example would be chữ Quốc ngữ 𫳘國語 ("script" + "national language"; literally script of the national language [Vietnamese], this refers to the Vietnamese alphabet). If we are refer to characters in general, chữ by itself would be used.
 * Chữ Nôm refers to the writing system that was formerly used to written Vietnamese. The system used self-coined characters alongside phonetic loans (假借) to write native Vietnamese terms, which also includes chữ Hán to write to write Sino-Vietnamese words. Think of this as Japanese using Kanji alongside Kana.
 * So you are correct, chữ Nôm would correspond to Written Chinese, Written Japanese, and Written Korean. While, chữ Hán would correspond to Hanzi, Kanji, and Hanja. Lachy70 (talk) 21:45, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
