Handwritten kanji recognition. Draw a kanji in the box with the mouse. The computer will try to recognize it. Be careful about drawing strokes in the correct order and direction.

The computer will write the top ten kanji which it thinks match your drawing below. The best match is on the left. The hyperlinks on the kanji take you to the entry for that kanji in Jim Breen's "WWWJDIC" (an online Japanese dictionary).
