尤为
yoú wéi · HSK 7
especially
⭐ 尤 = especially/particularly + 为 = be, do; together: especially so
Sounds a bit like yo-way: yoú wéi flags that one thing as standing out above the rest, the way you say something is especially true.
为 — simplified form of 為; from 爪 (claw/hand) over 象 (elephant)
The traditional form 為 originally depicted a hand leading an elephant, suggesting the act of doing or making work. Over time it generalized to mean 'to do, to act, for the sake of.' The simplified 为 preserves this 'do/for' meaning, with pronunciation shifting between wéi ('to be, to do') and wèi ('for, because of').
