EASY (IER) KANJI - JLPT 4 KYUU |
国 | This
is a combination of kuchi (口) [mouth] & tama
(玉) [ball].
Sometimes if the parts that make a kanji are strange it
becomes actually easier to remember! So get a ball
stick it in your mouth and
think of your country! You can also think of
something being contained by boundaries (countries are lands separated
by boundaries). Stroke order: |
1) koku, 2) kuni - country, a nation |
韓国 kan koku - Korea 外国 gai koku - foreign country 中国 chuu goku - China |
