////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

I introduce ''聞'' on this time.

By the information that we hear and got,
what we did not understand becomes clear.
We use this kanji in such a case.


I introduce ''聴'' on the next time.


Thank you.
See you next time.

All of us are pieces of peace.
