衣 yī Beautiful Chinese fashion and wonderful Chinese clothes and writing (269)

衣 Yī is also a Chinese family name. How silly is that?! Calling someone Mr. Coat, or Mr. Underwear.... Chinese writing is the greatest in the world, until you read the small print. 衣 has two pronunciations. When it is read yì, it means "to wear, to clothe". Examples: 1. 衣布衣 yì bùyī "wear cotton clothes" 2. 解衣yī衣yì人 "doff one' garments to clothe smb. else" 胞衣 bāoyī means "placenta", quite the euphemism: "foetus coat". #easychinesewriting #chinesecharacterswritingwithme #learnchinesewithme https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Yxzqvm_Zs-0
