Radicals
|
朝
|
the morning | (sunrise with the sun) |
|
|
sun rise | (The sun 日 rises between plants 艹. The very similar radical 莫 stands for sunset. This seems bizarre, can be argued based on the characters for morning 朝 in comparison to evening 暮.) |
|
月
|
moon, month | (When it is at the left in the character then often with the meaning "body part". If at the right, then as "moon, month, period".) |
