庄

Definition from Wiktionary, a free dictionary

• Alternate forms:
• 莊 (Traditional; different character in Japan)
• 荘 (Simplified Japanese shinjitai)

  In Chinese 莊 was simplified into 庄, but 庄 already existed as a character. In Traditional Chinese, Japanese, and probably Korean and Vietnamese, 莊/荘 and 庄 remain separate characters.
