例え
たとえ · tatoe · JLPT N3 · noun
example
例 means example; tatoe sounds like tattoo, eh: even though it's only an example
The kanji 例 is the same one in 例えば (tatoeba, for example). As a noun, 例え means an example or comparison. Used as an adverb with ても, as in たとえ雨でも (even if it rains), it means even though or even if.
