ιΈ
Land, Continent
JLPT N2
Interesting Fact
Japan is an island nation, so the contrast between ζ΅· (sea) and ιΈ (land) is especially important. The kanji appears in words like ε€§ιΈ (continent) and δΈιΈ (landing ashore).
Memory Trick
Imagine a ship finally reaching solid land after days at sea. That safe shoreline helps you remember ιΈ means 'land.'
