# Build
### Requirements
Need ncurses:
Debian based system : libncurses-dev
Archlinux based system: ncurses

An UTF8 font including basic Chinese characters (Chinese, Japanese or some Korean or Vietnamese (still strongly used at the same time than their new writings until ~1950 in both countries). I use simplified chinese here could add an option to choose between traditionnal and chinese. Japanese kanji are also since 20th century a mix of traditionnal (語,風,餃,…) and simplified (画，学，国…) hanzi.

## Compilation
./compile.sh

Sorry didn't practized c for long time, didn't managed/take time to have a working Makefile.

## Name etymology

Emohanjeu (\e̞˨.mo̞˦ xa̠n˥˧ ʒø\ is a multingual name, coming from Japanese: emoji + Mandarin Han Chinese: hanzi + French: jeu)

### Emo from emoji
Japanese emoji (絵文字／えもじ \e̞˨.mo̞˦.dʑi˨.◌˨\, meaning "picture character") come from:

* e (絵 [e̞], meaning "picture", "drawing", from Middle Chinese 繪 /ɦuɑiH/), from Old Chinese, Zhengzhang Shangfang reconstruction: /*ɡoːbs/.
* moji (文字 [mõ̞ɲ̟d͡ʑi], script, character), from Han Chinese word 文字 (script, character, pronounced \u̯ən˧˥ t͡sz̩˥˩\ in Modern Standard Mandarin) both from Old Chinese, Zhengzhang Shangfang reconstruction: /*mɯn zlɯs/.
* emo suggest me also English emoticon (or smiley) from emotion + icon, both from Old French, from Latin "emotus" (From ex- (“out of”) +‎ moveō (“move”), Proto-Indo-European:  *mew- ) and icon from Ancient Greek εἰκών (eikṓn), from Proto-Indo-European: *weyk-).

### Han from hanzi from Han
Mandarin Han Chinese hanzi (汉字/漢字 \xa̠n˥˧ t͡sz̩˥˩\, meaning Han character) come from Old Chinese.

* In Middle Chinese pronunciation \hɑnᴴ d͡zɨᴴ\
* Zhengzhang Shangfang Old Chinese phonetic reconstruction: /*hnaːns *zlɯs/

### Jeu from jocus
French jeu (\ʒø\, meaning game) come from Latin jocus \ˈjo.kus\, that obviously give "joke" in English) from Proto-Indo-European reconstruction: *yokos)
