眉(méi)

眉(méi)



字形:



        甲骨文的"眉"字由长形弯曲的东西的示意图和"目"(眼睛)构成。意思是眼睛上边长形弯曲的东西,指示出了眉毛的含义。"眉"就是指眼睛上的眉毛。由于眉和目是脸上最重要的部位,因此,"眉目"常用来指代容貌,如"眉目如画"意思是容貌像画出来一样美丽;引申表示事物的头绪,如"事情有了眉目"。

The oracle bone inscription of the character "眉" was comprised of "目" meaning "eye" and a long curve above, so this character is referred to the long curving thing above the eyes. It indicates the meaning of "眉" is eyebrow. Because the eyebrows and eyes are the most important parts in the face, "眉目" is usually referred to appearance. For example "眉目如画"means one's appearance is beautiful as if it is drawn in the picture. Then "眉目" extendedly means clue, for example "事情有了眉目".
