Of course they do. In fact, there are two main types of Chinese dictionaries: phonetic dictionaries organized by pronunciation and character dictionaries organized by radical.

Thanks for the reply, my question was intented to be rhetorical but my writing style wasn't the best. I was just trying to get JohnBooty to do a quick google search for Kanji/Hanzi dictionaries, after all how else could the east have developed such a sophisicated literary tradition without dictionaries.

I apologize - my question does look a bit like a lazy "please Google it for me" type of query.

I did very honestly attempt to look up the answer on Google, but found the results quite confusing. It's probably my fault.

However, I'm very grateful to the concise and comprehensible replies here on HN. I hope that perhaps they helped others as well.
