名誉
míngyū · HSK 6
honour
🏆 名 fame + 誉 praise — when fame meets praise, thats honour
誉 stacks 兴 prosper over 言 speech. Honour is when people speak well of your famous name.
名 — evening 夕 + mouth 口
A compound ideograph: in the dark of evening (夕), one cannot recognize others by sight, so the mouth (口) calls out a name to identify oneself. The original sense of 'name' broadened to include reputation, fame, and a measure word for people.
