  CJK
       
           In {internationalisation}, a collective term for
          Chinese, Japanese, and Korean.
       
          These languages all share the fact that their writing systems


          are based partly on {Han characters} (i.e., "hanzi" or
          "{kanji}"), which are complex enough of a system to require
          16-bit {character encodings}.  CJK character encodings should
          consist minimally of {Han characters} plus language-specific
          phonetic scripts such as pinyin, bopomofo, hiragana, hangul,
          etc.
       
          {CJKV} is CJK plus {Vietnamese}.
