water into ice, transformation seen in Chinese characters

[@kenneth7610]

Thank you great video!

[@rexnemo]

I do enjoy reading the radicals and how water has the ice radical added to show it is now ice !

[@ChinesewithJiayi]

It's the other way around, water radical added to the character of "water" makes "ice"☺️

[@rexnemo]

@@ChinesewithJiayi This takes a lot of work ! Thank you . So to clarify , the radical which is looked up is the main radical and then the other component of the character is then added to that one ?

Love your videos i can read characters because i speak Japanese and its very easy to start learning chinese using the characters!!! Great method!

[@ChinesewithJiayi]

Thanks and I feel the same when I looked at japanese characters, that I could guess somehow!

You are such a great teacher

[@ChinesewithJiayi]

Thanks for your words Miriam! May I know when you started learning Chinese?

@@ChinesewithJiayi I started one year ago. I was learning how to speak only, but now I believe if I learn the alphabet, it will be better for me.

你现在可以说冰淇淋了 😂

[@ChinesewithJiayi]

冰淇淋其实是个翻译词，”冰”对应ice，“淇淋”对应cream，因为（当时的）中国人不容易读这个英文词，“淇淋”两个字在这个词里并没有什么意思
