Determinants (pianpang) play a key role in pictophonetic characters usually operating as a semantic key to the meaning of the word, a topic classifir. Occasionally they are used as phonetic clues, even more rarely as pictorial elements. Some of these can be used independently as their own characters. Most of them only appear as a character component and cannot be used independently. Some of these are rarely used or are variant forms which are rarely used, especially in simplified Chinese.
