球 qiú ball, globe - Mandarin Chinese

Definition

Radical is 玉 yù “jade,” but notice that as a radical the last stroke (the dot) is dropped, so that the radical looks like 王 wáng “king”. For that reason, the colloquial name for this radical is 王字旁 wángzìpáng “side made up of the character 王.” Notice also that when used as a radical, the bottom line of 王 slants up toward the right, so as not to get in the way of the other component. Phonetic is 求 qiú “implore.”

Examples

  • 球 qiú ball [N]
  • 打球 dăqiú play a ball game [VO]
  • 排球 páiqiú volleyball [N]
  • 球鞋 qiúxié sneakers, athletic shoes [N]
