| − | Three 木 (mù | + | Three (many) trees make a 森 sēn ‘forest’: the Seal form of 森() sēn is said to combine 林() lín ‘forest/grove’ together with 木() mù ‘tree’. The old distinction seems to have been between 林 lín ‘forest/grove (on level ground)’, vs. 森 sēn ‘dense valley/hill/mountain forest, with tall trees’. Combined in the word 森林 sēnlín, the meaning is just ‘forest’ today. |
