Classical Poetry References

This name carries echoes of classical Chinese poetry:

慈母手中线,游子身上衣

The thread in a loving mother's hand becomes the garments on her wandering child's back

— Meng Jiao, 'Song of the Wanderer'

The needle and thread in a mother's hand become the clothes her traveling child wears — the deepest love is a mother's love.

两情若是久长时,又岂在朝朝暮暮

If love between two souls endures, why need they be together morning and night

— Qin Guan, 'Immortal at the Magpie Bridge'

If two hearts share an enduring love, what does it matter if they cannot be together day and night — the timeless truth of love.

Character Evolution

Explore how each character evolved over 3000+ years of Chinese writing history.

love, affection, cherish/ ài
Oracle Bone Script (甲骨文)~1600 BCE

No mature form of「爱」exists in oracle bone script. A prototypical form first appears in bronze script.

Bronze Script (金文)~1046 BCE

In bronze script,「爱」combines「心」(heart) and「夂」(walking), meaning action and giving that springs from the heart.

Seal Script (小篆)~221 BCE

In seal script,「爱」has「𢖻」(hands) above,「心」(heart) in the middle, and「夊」(feet) below — hands cradling a bare heart and delivering it to another person, the most sincere interpretation of love. The 'Shuowen' explains: 'Ai means kindness and grace.'

Evolution Summary

The evolution of「爱」tells the essence of love: acting from the heart. From the「心+夂」of bronze script, to the 'hands cradling a heart' of seal script, to the「友+心」(friend+heart) of simplified Chinese, every form expresses the most genuine emotion between people.
