Décomposition du caractère
Mnemonic
La lecture habituelle est le soleil 日 surmonté d’un petit trait : le premier rayon du jour, d’où « clair », puis « blanc ». Les paléographes ont proposé d’autres images et la question reste ouverte : retenez donc la forme plutôt que le récit — 日 avec un trait sur le toit. Deux sens autres que la couleur méritent d’être appris tôt : 明白, comprendre clairement, et 白来了, être venu pour rien.
