Character Story & Explanation
樾 (yuè) means 'shade of trees' or 'tree shade'. It combines the radical 木 (tree) with 越 (yuè, meaning 'to exceed' or 'to cross'), which gives a hint about its pronunciation. This character is often used in classical Chinese poetry to describe cool, pleasant shade provided by trees. It is not commonly used in daily conversation but appears in literary contexts and personal names.
