This template is used in the glyph origin section, similar to {{compound}}, but specifically for Hanzi compound. Use
{{Han compound|first component|second component|optional parameters}}
For instance, a simple etymology of 幕 could be created with:
{{Han compound|莫|巾|compound=幕}}
Which evaluates to:
As elsewhere, etymologies should be referenced.
Liushu
For liushu character classification, the parameter |ls= with ic (ideogrammic compound) or psc (phono-semantic compound) can be added:
{{Han compound|莫|巾|ls=psc}}
Phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声, OC *maːɡ): 莫 + 巾
A phono-semantic compound is made up of two components: a phonetic and a semantic one. They can be marked by using the parameters |c1= and |c2= with p or s:
{{Han compound|莫|巾|c1=p|c2=s|ls=psc}}
Phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声, OC *maːɡ): phonetic 莫 (OC *maːɡ) + semantic 巾
Translations
Furthermore, there is the possibility to give translations of the components by using the parameters |t1= and |t2=:
{{Han compound|莫|巾|ls=psc|t2=textiles}}
Phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声, OC *maːɡ): 莫 + 巾 (“textiles”)
Alternative forms
Alternative forms can be given by using the parameters |alt1= and |alt2=, take 慕 for example:
{{Han compound|莫|心|alt2=㣺|ls=psc|t2=heart}}
Phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声, OC *maːɡs): 莫 + 㣺 (“heart”)
Characters of non-Chinese origin
For characters of of non-Chinese origin, a language code should be specified with |lang=.
{{Han compound|米|頗|c1=s|c2=p|lang=vi|ls=psc|t1=rice|tr2=phở}}
Phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声): semantic 米 (“rice”) + phonetic 頗 (phở)
Additional parameters
|adj=- If specified, the adjectival form of the liushu name will be used, i.e. “pictographic” instead of “pictogram”.
|nocap=- If specified, the first letter will be lowercase.
|abbx=- If specified, the xth component will be labeled as "abbreviated".
|trx=- Transliteration for the xth component (replaces the automatic Old Chinese pronunciation if present).
|no_och=(for the compound) and|no_ochx=(for the xth component)- If specified, the automatic Old Chinese pronunciation for the corresponding character will be omitted (it's displayed by default for the compound and the phonetic component, if the character is a phono-semantic character).
