葉
は · ha · JLPT N4 · noun
leaf
🍃 葉 = grass 艹 + 世 generation + tree 木; ha, like a leaf's soft rustle
The kanji stacks plant 艹 on top, 世 (generation) in the middle, and tree 木 below: the growth a tree renews each generation. The reading ha is a single breath, the same puff of air that sets a leaf moving.
