Title: Researches on Word Nuclear in the Chinese Character Structure
Abstract: By way of research on two sets of characters, we find that the structure of character existing a nucleus word nuclear that it possesses the simplified characters structure and links up several bridge effects of character. On these grounds, the author puts forward the hypothesis that there universally exists word nuclear in the structure of character, in the light of the systematic research on whole characters included in Chinese Words Dictionary (14872 words). The research results show that about 14582 words have word nuclear, which takes up more than 98% of the total. So, we can reach a conclusion: word nuclear exists universally, which bears the functions of simplifying characters and linking up different words with the same word nuclear.
