How to use an onkun index for looking up kanji for the N3 JLPT test
The onkun index allows you to look up kanji if you know one of the readings of the kanji , either onyomi or kunyomi. If you know one of these, then this index will quickly help you to find the other meanings or readings of the kanji
If you dont know how to read a kanji best to use a form or stroke order index.
So really when you start to learn kanji for the N3 JLPT you start with the stroke order index and form index and then progress to the onkun index and will probably use all three.
Kanji in Context
and The Compact Nelson
both have an ONKUN index in them to help you find kanji quickly
Video how to use an onkun index below
Note that the jump up from stroke order and form index is very large, so take your time to get use to the onkun index. IT is as you will see in the video a big memory jump, as you must memorize the many combinations, orders and layers to be able to picture where a reading fits. But luckily in time, it comes to you with a flash and you don't have to even think.So that is something to look forward too.
