I introduce ''氷'' on this time.

The frozen ( 冫 ) water ( 水 ) is called ice ( 氷 ( = 冰 ) ).

A lot of kanjis consist of it by a combination for each part in this way.
Is it easy to learn the meaning of this kanji?


I introduce ''池'' on the next time.


Thank you.
See you next time.

All of us are piece of peace.
