禅："Chan vs Zen"
You mean in phonetic sense?
Are you looking for worldwide popular kanji pronounced in Japanese way?
If so, '漢字 kanji' is the one that is pronounced 'hanji' in Chinese. And I think 'kanji' is more common than 'hanji' in 'Western world'
But sorry that I even didn't know ’Chan’ meant Zen....
