There is a blog post about the kanji 冷.
That kanji is used in Japanese too: 冷たい (tsumetai = つめたい)refers to a cold thing (rather than cold air). What I have never understand about this kanji is why its printed form looks so different to its written form. The last three strokes are different:
third to last stroke is written sloping down and to the right
second last stroke when written goes across to the right and then slopes back left and down
last written stroke is perpendicular to the end of the previous stroke and points down and to the right
Basically, the last two strokes look like a katakana マ. Does that マ look like the last two strokes of the printed kanji 冷?
The printed kanji seems to have one fewer stroke than the written one.
Does anyone know what is going on here?
