The Chinese character 母 (mǔ) for "mother" is a pictograph that depicts a woman kneeling with her breasts exposed, symbolizing her role as a nurturer. The character is composed of two parts: the radical 女 (nǚ), which means "woman," and the phonetic component 莫 (mò), which is pronounced similarly to "mother." The character 母 has been used in Chinese writing for over 3,000 years and has remained largely unchanged in its form and meaning. It is one of the most common characters in the Chinese language and is used in a variety of words related to motherhood, family, and kinship.
