Chinese Characters Look and Compare © 2016 chinessimo.net Look and compare: 人入, 大太, 天夫, 木本..... Why are these ideograms so alike? Is there a reason to draw an extra point or a longer stroke so the head extends to the side or not ? Yes, there is more to the meaning of an image than just the simplest form conveys 人 "man, pictogram of a person " → 大 "big, a person who spreads his arms to overawe his size" → 天 "sky, greater greater till the end" → 夫 "master, greater than the sky turns back a person" Two characters, instead of one !! The unique concept of this book is to show two or more similar characters and understand their meaning and difference in origin. We will explain, for example, the process that lets you change the ideogram of "wood" to "origin" which is also "root". This logic leads to an improved ability to easily learn the Chinese language. An ebook for the curious and those who want to learn !
