Ep. 5: Kanji Tidbit

I introduced kanji 園, garden, and 船, ship in previous two episodes.
This is the third. And final kanji story. I don’t have anymore.
Let’s start shall we?

Could we please imagine that we are in the garden?
Now, you can see tree (木).
It is located centre of the garden.
Let me see, there is two trees!(木, 木)
Look at that!
Can you see there are delicious-looking fruits are growing on the trees?
Hummm… looks nice for food.
Shall we eat? No? Errrrr… Could I try just one please? No?
Okay, then I don’t.
Yes, we can’t eat this fruits because this is prohibited
Two trees are here 木, 木. And here’s creator 示.
Put it under the tree. Then what kanji can you see?
禁!Yes. This kanji means forbidden or to warn.
Do you know the name of trees, by the way?

And now, we go back to first kanji 園.
Can you recall that?
Do you remember the two people inside enclosure?
Actually, they ate fruits, and had to leave the garden.
Now enclosure has removed. Because they were expelled from the garden.
袁 is here. No enclosure. And 遠is here, attached 辶.
遠means distance. 辶shows walk.
They must have gone for distance. They walked far far away from the garden.
Let’s revision now.
They were in the “garden”. 園
They ate fruits from tree which was “forbidden”. 禁
They had to walk away long long “distance” from the garden. 遠

Kanji is interesting.
Some recalls biblical story.
It might be far-fetched story, but still interesting.

Could we pleaseLet's imagine that we are in thea garden?

"Could we please" is asking the reader to do something. But since the reader is more or less expected to imagine the garden, it is better to just say "let's imagine." Less asking and more "we will be imagining the garden right now."

Haha! This was my silly strategy. I learned “do not abuse comma”. So I think I have to done something. I just put period instead comma. (gasp)Eep! Busted?

When I talk, I made lot of mistakes. Choose words wrongly or strange structure happen a lot. But friends let it slide as proceeding conversation is more important. I write here, evidence here. I can SEE my mistakes. I really appreciate your correction. Even small mistakes , you put proper words. That is BIG help. Thank you!

Comma? I’m struggling with comma now. Haha. I have to read more, write more. Then, hopefully used to it. I only know FANBOYS. For. And. Nor. But. Or. Yet. So.

Yeah, there are a lot of rules. Personally, I’m not good with the names of each rule nor can I explain them properly (sorry about that). I studied grammar, but only memorized how to use it. I still had to go through grammar textbooks in high school even as a native speaker!
