Compound characters are further divided into composite characters, interchangeable characters, and symmetrical characters. Composite characters are composed of multiple components, interchangeable characters can be replaced or exchanged on the components, while symmetrical characters have symmetrical structures on both sides. This book discusses the construction method and process of the knowledge graph of the Tangut characters and their components.
