The basic introduction to Kanji has finished, so now I'd like to focus on the characters that I'm studying for the JLPT (N3 level).
My goal is to post 1 kanji everyday. The characters come from the U-CAN textbook series for students studying for the JLPT N3 level.
From here onwards, the characters and explanations will probably become more complex.
But also more interesting:-).
Meaning: BODY
Reading: SHIN / mi
Strokes: 7
Etymology: A pictograph showing a pregnant woman standing side-on. Originally the meaning was limited to pregnant woman, but later came to encompass the meaning of body in general.
Mnemonic: A pregnant woman has a conspicuous BODY.
