The jōyō kanji (常用漢字, jōyō kanji?) is the kanji characters as a guide announced officially by the Japanese Ministry of Education. Current jōyō kanji are 1,945 characters issued on October 10, 1981. It is a slightly modified version of the tōyō kanji, which was the initial list of secondary school-level kanji standardized after World War II.
The 1,945 kanji in the jōyō kanji consist of:
1,006 kanji taught in primary school (these are known as the kyōiku kanji);
939 more kanji taught in secondary school;
Changes from the tōyō kanji
The jōyō kanji list added 95 kanji not included in the tōyō kanji. Additionally, the character 燈 of the tōyō kanji was replaced by the simplified form 灯.
The kanji found among the jōyō kanji but not the tōyō kanji are listed here:
