仁
rén
humane
kernel
person (亻) + two (二) = the virtue between two people
Confucian thought defines 仁 as the ideal relationship between two people: empathy, care, and benevolence that flows between self and other. The kernel meaning (as in a seed's core) likely derives from the same character by metaphor — the living heart inside a fruit.
他对每个人都很仁慈,大家都喜欢他。
tā duì měi gè rén dōu hěn rén cí,dà jiā dōu xǐ huān tā。
He is very humane to everyone, and everyone likes him.
这颗桃子的仁可以用来做药。
zhè kē táo zi de rén kě yǐ yòng lái zuò yào。
The kernel of this peach can be used to make medicine.
