Prepositions of Location

 The Story of Chinese Character : 上 

 上 depicts the horizon with a point written above it, clearly indicate something situated on the top, thus deriving the meaning of going forward.

「上」字是地平線的象形，地平線之上有一點，明白指出「上」的位置，並因此而衍生出向前走的意思。

The Story of Chinese Character : 下

下 depicts the horizon with a point written below it, clearly indicate something situated at the bottom, thus deriving the meaning of moving backward.

「下」字是地平線的象形，地平線之下有一點，明白指出「下」的位置，並因此而衍生出往後退的意思。

The Story of Chinese Character : 卡

卡 was formed by 上 and 下, represents something get stuck in between, also derives the meaning of stop. On the other hand, since the pronunciation of 卡 is similar to English word 'card', 卡

「卡」字由「上」字和「下」字組成，指某些東西給楔在其間，亦有停止的意思。另一方面，由於「卡」字的發音跟英文的 card 近似，故亦有硬紙片之意。

 The Story of Chinese Character : 左

左 depicts a hand with 工(a tool) next to it. Ancient Chinese thought that right hand is more important among two hands since it was stronger and more agile, while left hand was less important and was seen as an assistant of the right hand. Tool is an assistant of human beings so 工 is added to represent it is our left hand or the left.

「左」字是一隻手的象形，而「工」字(工具)在其旁。古代中國人認為兩手中以右手為主，因其較靈活強壯，而視左手為右手之輔佐。因工具是人力的輔佐，故在手旁加上「工」字­，以示左手或左邊。

The Story of Chinese Character : 右

右 depicts a hand with 口(a mouth) next to it. Since right hand is stronger and more agile among two hands , we use it to do most of our works while the production of food is the most important, so 囗 is added to represent it is our right hand or the right.

「右」字是一隻手的象形，而「口」字(嘴巴)在其旁。兩手中，右手比較強壯和靈活，故我們用右手做大部工作，且工作中尤以食物生產最重要，於是我們便在手的旁邊加一「口」­字以代表右手或右邊。

On the other hand, 又 is the origin of 右. In the past, 又 meant right hand, but after 右 had been invented, 又 solely meant also. Now 右 and 又 share the same pronunciation, it can be seen as an evidence of such evolution.

此外，「右」字本自「又」字。昔日，「又」字亦有右手的意思，但在發明「右」字後，「又」字單指而且。現在，「右」字和「又」字的發音仍完全相同，可說是是項演變的有力証­據。

漢字的故事 : 又

「又」字是一隻右手的象形。右手比左手強，所以能夠用完再用。「又」字的原本解釋後來被「右」字取代，「又」字只剩下「再次」的意思。

指事字Hieroglyphics　屬於「獨體造字法」。與象形的主要分別，是指事字含有繪畫較抽像中的東西。例如「刃」字是在「刀」的鋒利處加上一點，以作標示；「凶」字則是在陷阱處加上交叉符號；「上」、「下」二字則是在主體「一」的上方或下方畫上標示符號；「三」則由三橫來表示。這些字的勾畫，都有較抽像的部份。

 量詞教學歌謠〈一〉

量詞，用以說明數量的多少，每個名詞都有特定的量詞，不能拆開來使用。一頭花貓、兩隻老鼠、三顆星星、四位遊客、五朵紅花、六座花園、七面牆壁、八輛汽車、九匹壯馬、十件­衣服。一二三四五六七八九十，我的量詞分得好清楚！

朗讀自選題目（一）：老師的心　　　　　

老師的心是鐵打的，

當我做錯事，老師變成冰冷的鐵塊，提醒我勇於認錯；

老師的心是巧克力做的，當我考試一百分，老師成為wéi​

我的甜蜜的糖，溫暖我的心；

老師的心是奶精做的，當我表現良好時，老師笑成溫柔的漩渦，好像一圈一圈的奶茶。
