I've been learning kanji for the last month or so using kanjidamage and a simple program I wrote asking me questions from the website. So far I've fully remembered the first 220 entries and maybe one reading from another 100 or so kanji (because of the jukugos). Having watched hundreds of anime over the years I can tell the meaning of a lot more words if I can get the reading.
Now my question is, I'd like to get some japanese-english (paper, not online) dictionary with the most common words (maybe 10,000 or 20,000 words but having more is not an issue). I've looked around and every dictionary I find sorts the words according to their reading. This doesn't help at all if I encounter a word I can't read. Are there dictionaries sorting words by kanji ? (using the radicals probably, the same way it's done on kanjidamage) If there are, is it a good thing to get one of those ? If not, what is a good kanji reference book ? (I would expect it to have the meaning, different readings and jukugo examples for 2000 kanji or so)
