Reduced forms beside the original
When kvg:element differs from kvg:original and that original is a jōyō character, the reduced form’s stroke count and letter-stripped type sequence beside the original’s own order, and where the form sits in the host.
These are counts in one KanjiVG snapshot. A count is not a rule. The page does not say that one form is the right one. The original is the kvg:original string. The page makes no claim about meaning.
Cinnabar marks the reduced form’s strokes on the host, once they have been drawn. The standalone plate is not recolored. The tint is data-stroke-highlight. A plate without it is not recolored. Click a plate to replay. With reduced motion the finished character stays still, and the color stays. The draw timings are unchanged. The plate stays cream in either theme.

How a reduced form is read
- Reduced form
- Original
- Instance
- Reference
- Stroke count kept
- The instance has the same number of strokes as the original’s own file.
- Stroke count changed
- The instance does not have that number of strokes. Shorter and longer split this cell, and they add to it.
- Shorter
- Fewer strokes than the original’s own file.
- Longer
- More strokes than the original’s own file.
- Sequence the same
- Sequence different
- The letter-stripped sequences are not equal. A different length is different.
- First
- One unbroken run, starting at stroke 1, with some other stroke still to come.
- Last
- One unbroken run, ending on stroke N, with some other stroke already written.
- Split
- In the middle
- One unbroken run that is neither the start nor the end.
- The whole character
- The instance contains every stroke. It is not counted as first or as last.
- Partial
- Host
- A jōyō character that contains the instance. One host can contain more than one instance.

By original
On each row the form counts add to the occurrences. Kept, shorter, and longer add to the occurrences. Same and different add to the occurrences. First, last, split, in the middle, and the whole character add to the occurrences. The total row sums those columns. The strokes are not a sum. The hosts column adds to the number in the total row, and that number is not the distinct hosts.
