what does this kanji mean? - 12-04-2009, 08:42 AM



I'm dying to know what kind of message he tries to send out to the world on his cool FD2 RR.

by the way where can I find these kanji image files? (common used kanjis)

I wanna make some kanji sticker

any help would be appreciated.

動く it comes from this kanji and means 'to move'

So there stands a big fat kanji that says: I move :P

(maybe it is originally a chinese meaning, which could be a bit cooler :P )

Are you sure it is not 重力? The dimension of 力 semms more like a singular kanji and not belonging to the previous one.
But in both cases, move or gravity makes not a great message for such a nice car

i dont think it is 重力 because the 力 is surely connected to the first kanji ( it is written under one of the lines of it)

But oh well, it doest really matter since both meaning tend to express the same thingy :P

What you mentioned is right! The 2 Chinese characters are pretty close to each other. I think that if they wanted to write 2 separate characters, that would obviously require much space using that kind of script. So yeah, It seems that they used the kanji for "dou" alone with the concept of motion or movement

I agree that that's 動 (dou as part of a compound, ugo(ku) as part of the verb 動く), with the basic meaning of "movement".
