The Chinese character 田 (tián) for "field" is a pictograph that depicts a square plot of land divided into nine equal parts. The character first appeared in oracle bone script, the earliest known form of Chinese writing, dating back to the Shang dynasty (c. 1600–1046 BCE). The original form of the character was a simple square, but over time, the character evolved to include the nine divisions, which represent the different sections of a field that are used for planting crops.The character 田 is also used in a number of other Chinese characters, including:* 畑 (tián): field, farmland* 田地 (tián dì): farmland, arable land* 田园 (tián yuán): countryside, rural area* 田庄 (tián zhuāng): farm, manor* 田野 (tián yě): field, countrysideThe character 田 is also used in a number of Chinese idioms, including:* 一亩三分地 (yī mǔ sān fēn dì): a small piece of land* 天下为公 (tiān xià wéi gōng): the world belongs to everyone* 民以食为天 (mín yǐ shí wéi tiān): food is the most important thing for peopleThe character 田 is a common character in Chinese, and it is an important part of the Chinese writing system.
