旧きゅう漢かん字じ

noun

old-style kanji; traditional kanji forms

Refers to kanji forms used before the post-war simplifications, such as 舊 for 旧 or 體 for 体. Often encountered in historical texts, names, or formal contexts.

• この本ほんは旧きゅう漢かん字じで書かかれているので、読よみにくい。

  This book is written in old-style kanji, so it's hard to read.

• 旧きゅう漢かん字じと新しん漢かん字じの対たい応おう表ひょうを調しらべる。

  I look up a conversion table between old and new kanji forms.
