WALK TWO

Being printed, character WALK ONE (or Walk1) looks similar to other characters of WalkU.

WalkU is set of the following five Unicode characters:

X2ECC [2], KanjiRadical, Walk0, SIMPLIFIED WALK

X2ECD [1], KanjiRadical, Walk1, WALK ONE

X2ECE [3], KanjiRadical, Walk2, WALK TWO

X8FB6 [4], KanjiLiberal, Walk3

XFA66 [5], KanjiConfudal, Walk4

Characters of WalkU may have similar pronunciation しんにょう, Shinnyou and similar meanings: walk, move, advance; these characters are easy to confuse each other.

Pic

Pic , in the first approach, look as the ascii character

X004C, L, Capital L

In more detail, pic of can b ecescribed as

Greek letter \(\lambda\) at the left down corner,
with some dots above it (that depend on the default font of the software)
and
X005F _ the ascii character "_" (Connector Punctuation, that is not allowed as article name) at right bottom.

More synonyms

In addition to WalkU mentioned above, characters of Radical 162, id est,
X2FA1 and
X8FB5
appear as synonyms of : that have similar pronunciation and similar meaning.

At Linux default font, as well as at Macintosh default font, Pictures to these two characters look very similar to each other, contributing to the general confuse of the Japanese characters.

Characters of Radical 162 are believed to transform to characters of WalkU (in particular, to ); then pics of WalkU appear as component of pics of other kanji, transferring to them part of their meaning.

No estimate of the efficiency of such an interpretation is found in the literature.

Use

Character by itself is not popular in Japanese texts. But, as it is mentioned above, its pic appears as component of pics of more complicated Kanjis. Here are few examples:

X901A [6]: Traffic, pass through, avenue, commute, counter for letters, notes, documents

X9023 [7]: Take along, lead, join, connect, party, gang, clique

X9032 [8]: continue, move on, Advance, proceed, progress, promote

X9053 [9]: Road-way, street, district, journey, course, moral, teachings

X9078 [10]: Elect, select, choose, prefer

The characters above are complicated; they are enlarged in order to allow the visual recognition.
(Over-vice, all of them would look similar to character X2592 .)
Bue even after the endargmenr, it is difficult to say, namely which character of WalkU is used as prototype for the lower-bottom parts of the kanjis mentioned.

Tarja

In century 21, the computer support of characters of Japanese is underdeveloped.
Up to year 2021, there is no united standard for the default font, that would allow each character to look the same at various computers, but different from other characters.
Apparently, the opposite cases take place: the character looks different with the default font of different operational systems, but similar to other characters at the same computer. This causes confuses.

Characters, that cannot be identified visually, cause error, mistakes. Information, saved for the name with one character and recovered for another (although very similar) character, may be lost.

The radical solution of the problem would be use only ascii characters, id est, naming of all kanjis by their hexadecimal numbers, that always are recognizable and distinguishable. However, the text, prepared in such a way, is not good for the Human reading.

The special system of notation Tarja is suggested as compromise between the Japanese language and its ascii transliteration.

The idea of Tarja is to keep those Japanese characters, that no not confuse with other characters.

Tarja is system of notations for characters of Japanese language, characterized in that, that, in order to avoid confusions, all the confusive characters and words are replaced to their Hiragana or Ascii analogies.

In particular, character WALK ONE (X2ECD ) can be translated from Japanese to Tarja in the following ways:

1. しんにょう

2. Shinnyou

3. WalkU

4. Walk1 or X2ECD (when it is necessary to distinguish it from other WalkU)

The inverse translation, back to Japanese, can be performed with dictionary Tarja-Japanese
