What is the upper radical in the Kanji 悪?












3















I recognize the heart radical at the bottom of the kanji 悪, but I cannot make my mind about the upper one.




  • Do you know the name of this radical?

  • Do you also know of another Kanji using this radical?


I have some notions of Chinese, and I don't seem to recognize a similar radical. I have been told Kanji/Hanzi have been simplified differently during history depending on Chinese or Japan. So maybe there's a different simplified Chinese form for this one.

    I'm not sure if I'd call it a "radical" exactly, but the top part of 悪 seems identical to the kanji 亜, if that helps.

Do you know the name of this radical ?




It is 亜【あ】, which is not only a component (calling it radical is technically wrong) but an independent character that even has a dedicated page on Wiktionary.




Do you also know of another Kanji using this radical?




Yes, and there is a relatively user-friendly website to look up kanji if you read Japanese.



When you search for 悪, you will get its decomposition ⿱亜心. And if you put 亜 in the search form as "component" (部品),
you will get a handful of characters. But if you see the information page of 亜, you will be notified that its traditional form is 亞, which is likely to be used in more (i.e. non-常用) kanji. So if you look up 亞 as component, you will get a bunch of characters. Here is the dump:




唖 亜 𪰥 𨉼 𤩖 𤉁 𣱌 𣊰 𢳩 𡏍

The upper part of 悪, 亜{あ} itself is not a radical, but if you take the kanji 亜, it's radical is 二.
