The Chinese character 仍 (réng) is composed of two parts: 日 (rì) and 壬 (rén). 日 means "sun" and 壬 is a pictograph of a person standing with arms outstretched. Together, they form the character 仍, which originally meant "to stand in the sun" or "to bask in the sun". Over time, the meaning of 仍 has evolved to include the ideas of "still", "yet", and "even".In modern Chinese, 仍 is used in a variety of contexts. It can be used as a verb, an adverb, or a conjunction. As a verb, 仍 means "to continue" or "to persist". As an adverb, 仍 means "still" or "yet". As a conjunction, 仍 means "even though" or "in spite of".For example, the sentence 他仍然很年轻 (tā rénghéng hěn niánqīng) means "He is still very young". The sentence 我仍然爱你 (wǒ rénghéng ài nǐ) means "I still love you". The sentence 即使他很穷，他仍然很幸福 (jǐshǐ tā hěn qióng, tā rénghéng hěn xìngfú) means "Even though he is very poor, he is still very happy".仍 is a common character in Chinese, and it is important for HSK learners to understand its meaning and usage.
