Décomposition du caractère

• 长shape partUn graphe simple, et une clé à part entière : le 長 traditionnel montre une personne âgée aux cheveux laissés longs, appuyée sur un bâton.

Mnemonic

Le 長 traditionnel dessine une personne âgée aux cheveux laissés longs, appuyée sur un bâton — cheveux longs et longues années en une seule image. Les deux lectures en découlent : cháng, « long » (长城, 多长时间) ; zhǎng, « grandir », puis « celui qui a grandi, celui qui dirige » (长大, 校长, 长子). Le 长 simplifié garde l’élan de la chevelure en quatre traits.
