瓜(guā)

瓜(guā)



字形:



       古代的金文(一种刻在青铜器上的文字)"瓜"字看起来,像藤蔓的分叉处结了一个果实,悬挂在那里,整个字是藤上长着瓜的形象。人们吃瓜的时候,常用刀顺着瓜纹切开吃,因此用"瓜分"比喻分割或分配。"瓜分"后来也指若干强国联合起来分割弱小或经济不发达国家的土地。

The ancient Chinese character "瓜" in the bronzescript was the image of a melon growing in the ramification of tendrils. The outer part of the Chinese pictogram for "瓜" looked like a vine, and the inner part looked like fruit. This character represented a melon on the vine. When people eat melons, they often cut them along the natural lines, and thus the Chinese expression "瓜分", meaning partition. Later "瓜分" has been used to refer to superpowers getting together to divide the lands of small and economically underdeveloped countries.
