So I am learning kanji, right? And I thought that I would love to learn Jinmeiyou kanji. I am currently learning Jouyou so it may take a while. However, I was curious about the kanji so I looked some up. I decided to make a list of them with meanings and readings.

This could help me and I hope will help the rest of you. I love kanji and want to learn ALL 3205 that exist. So I created this thread for the Jinmeiyou kanji.

Hope this helps some of you out. I got the readings and meanings from a site that I will attach below. The readings are real too. But some may seem to not work or exist, but do.

Kanji with no meaning have no meaning (apparently) so I can't do anything about them.

Note: there are many kanji so it will take me time to add the readings and post them up! For stroke order, you are going to have to use your knowledge of other kanji strokes to learn these strokes.
