N3 Kanji 77: 塩

Meaning:

In Japanese, 塩 means “salt”.


How to read it:

Kunyomiしお
Onyomiえん、あん

How to write it:


Origin:

It’s hard to remember this kanji by its origin. But you can use 温(which means “warm”) to remember this kanji.

You know that the salt will dissolve in water.
So you need to change the three points(which means “water”) of 温 to 土(soil). And use a cover to protect it.
So 塩 means “salt”.
