【飲む, No-mu, to drink】 ---- Drinking with your mouth open
We use a character which looks like 飲 for the meaning to drink something in Japan. We say "to drink (飲む)" not only for water but also for medicine, as it's common to say "Kusuri wo No-mu (薬を飲む, take medicine)." What's the impression for you to see the Japanese letter at the first glance? In fact, historically it came from a symbol for eating and from a yawing person with a wide mouth. Let's take a look at how each part was made from.
At first, you stroke the left part, which appears like the symbol for eating "食." True, this component is called Shoku-hen, the part of eating, or Radical eat. The last terminology as well as others can be referred at Japanese Wikipedia, as you type "しょくへん (Shokuhen)" in this case.
How was the left component made? The initial drawing depicts that people get together to cook food in a pot and eat them.
Then, the right one, which means "absent" if the character stands by itself, came from one person who is yawing with his or her mouth widely open.
These two parts combined, the imaginary person might be drinking something such as water or soup with their mouth open. That's how today's character was constructed.
In addition, as I told you above, 飲 belongs to the group of eat-related characters in the language. Other examples are 飯 (Meshi, steamed rice), 餅 (Mochi, sticky rice cake), 飴 (Ame, rounded candies made of sugar, except chocolate) and so forth. The last two are not ones designated for everyday use, yet, in my view, many Japanese people can read or type them. In other words, writing by themselves would be another thing.
Personally, it was the first time to learn that you use the English term Radical to refer to a component in a language. I wouldn't expect there is a reference to a language part. Have you ever heard the word when you study? If so, how did you use it? I'm happy to learn.
Thank you for reading my article.
¿Por qué estoy aprenderiendo español?
1. Paso muchas horas en mi auto.
2. ¿Por qué no?
3. 400 millones de potenciales nuevos amigos.
4. Las mujeres de Univisión son muy hermosas, y yo necesito una razón para verlas. Si mi esposa dice "Why are you watching that?", puedo decir "I'm trying to learn Spanish."
5. Soy estadounidense, y no me gusta el esteriotipo de que los estadounidenses soló hablan una idioma.
Why am I learning Spanish?
1. I spend a lot of time in my car.
2. Why not?
3. 400 million potential new friends.
4. The women on Univision are very beautiful, and I need a reason to watch them. If my wife says "Why are you watching that?", I can say Ï'm trying to learn Spanish".
5. I'm American, and I don't like the stereotype that Americans only speak one language.

Hi :-)
Hi!
I am interested in practicing Spanish. In exchange I can help you with English. A few things about me: I am from California in the United States, I graduated from college recently with my degree in psychology and a minor in physics (I have too many interests I guess ;-) I would love to travel to Spain soon. I have already traveled to South America, several places in Europe, and Australia.
I am a bit shy about practicing spanish but I promise I will do my best to get over that :-) I also love playing the drums. My name on here is pearl because I chose the name after my Pearl Export drum set! I love mountain biking, skiing, photography, traveling and my two dogs and more. If you want to know just ask!
I am willing to use Skype messaging, voice or video chat. My Skype name is mia22458 and my real name is Mia. Feel free to send me a message or add me on Skype! :-)
Introduction
I am learning spanish because I would like to travel in Spain. Also in many countries in South America. I feel as though learning a new language is like allowing yourself to blend with an entire different culture. I am excited for this to begin, and I believe that I need to start talking to people who don't mind correcting me when I am wrong.
