Kanji - Level 35 - Radicals

Question 1

帯

Answer 1

Belt
This radical is the same as the kanji. It means belt.

Question 2

為

Answer 2

Sake
This radical looks like a big, weird caterpillar bug thing. But, for the sake of everyone’s sanity, we’ll just call it sake, okay? Keep in mind, we mean sake as in “for the sake of X,” not as in the alcoholic beverage!

Question 3

将

Answer 3

Commander
Who wears cleats and takes your measurements for so long that icicles start forming on your body? Your commander. The commander is very, very particular. And everyone knows the commander has to get everything exactly right. So taking your measurements takes SO long that icicles grow out of your nose. But that’s okay. You have to impress your new commander, darn it!

Question 4

亀

Answer 4

Turtle
There’s a turtle shell inside this turtle radical. You can tell because there’s a whole head and tail on this thing, making it a real turtle, not just a turtle shell.

Question 5

彑

Answer 5

Shuriken
See the shuriken stuck into the ground? In case you don’t know, a shuriken is just a throwing star. Awesome ninjas use them. That’s what’s in this radical.
