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

I introduce ''崩'' on this time.

This kanji expresses that ''A mountain collapse''.

When a thing collapses so as not to keep original form,
we often use this kanji.

I introduce ''破'' on the next time.


Thank you.
See you next time.

All of us are pieces of peace.
