梦
mèng
dream (CL:場|场[chang2],個|个[ge4])
(bound form) to dream
Forest (林) + evening (夕) = dream
Dreams arise when you lie beneath shadowy trees as evening falls — the forest and dusk together conjure the hazy world of sleep. The full traditional form adds a bed and an eye, but even in the simplified version the dim, wooded twilight sets the scene.
我昨晚做了一个很奇怪的梦。
wǒ zuó wǎn zuò le yī gè hěn qí guài de mèng。
I had a very strange dream last night.
她梦见自己在一个陌生的地方。
tā mèng jiàn zì jǐ zài yī gè mò shēng de dì fāng。
She dreamed that she was in an unfamiliar place.
