Étymologie et composants

The Chinese word 晴天 (qíngtiān) for "sunny day" is composed of two characters: 晴 (qíng) and 天 (tiān). The character 晴 originally meant "clear" or "bright", and was often used to describe the weather. It is composed of the sun radical 日 (rì) and the character 青 (qīng), which means "blue" or "green". The combination of these two characters suggests the idea of a clear, blue sky. The character 天 (tiān) means "sky" or "heaven", and is often used to refer to the weather. When combined with 晴, it forms the compound word 晴天, which specifically refers to a day with a clear sky and good weather.
