Also traditional?[edit]

Can this also be traditional Chinese? It's found in the Nom Foundation database of Vietnamese characters, which are based on traditional Chinese characters. 131.123.1.226 06:01, 23 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Can 祇 also be simplified?[edit]

I am finding "," meaning "only," not simplified as "只," in numerous online versions of a Chinese poem from the Tang Dynasty. Does this mean that "" can also be simplified? 204.11.189.94 13:59, 7 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Authoritative reference for such things is Table of General Standard Chinese Characters. https://zh.wikisource.org/wiki/%E9%80%9A%E7%94%A8%E8%A7%84%E8%8C%83%E6%B1%89%E5%AD%97%E8%A1%A8#fn_11 - [zhǐ]/"only" is prescribed to be simplified to 只, the other reading [qí]/"earth spirit" is not simplified.
