Extension split (L shape)

Ready to Start Decomposition

This unit teaches how to split a character into its Cangjie pieces. Learn the rule, then practice, and you can break down characters you've never seen.

Characters whose frame runs down the left then out to the right (辶, 走, 廴)

Extension split (L shape)

The head runs down the left and then extends to the right in an L shape, wrapping the body into the upper-right corner (辶, 走, 廴). Outside to inside, take the surrounding head first, then the body inside.
