好む
このむ · konomu · JLPT N3 · verb-godan
to like
👍 好む: 好 = woman 女 + child 子, fondness; konomu sounds like know more
The kanji 好 pairs 女 (woman) with 子 (child), an old sign for affection. For the sound, think konomu = know more: you want to know more about the things you like. 好む is a little more formal than 好き.
好 — woman 女 + child 子
好 is an associative compound showing a woman 女 beside a child 子, depicting a mother with her baby. From this image of maternal affection it came to mean 'good, fine, pleasing.' The reading hǎo means 'good'; read hào it means 'to like.'
