Default The Most Complex Chinese Character

The most complex Chinese character still in use may be biáng, with 57 strokes, which refers to Biang Biang Noodles, a type of noodle from China's Shanxi province. This character along with syllable biang cannot be found in dictionaries. The fact that it represents a syllable that does not exist in any Standard Mandarin word means that it could be classified as a dialectal character.

The most complex character found in modern Chinese dictionaries is 齉 nàng meaning "snuffle" (that is, a pronunciation marred by a blocked nose), with "just" thirty-six strokes. The most complex character that can be input using the Microsoft New Phonetic IMA 2002a for Traditional Chinese is 龘 tà "the appearance of a dragon in flight"; it is composed of the dragon radical represented three times, for a total of 16 × 3 = 48.
