| Don't slip off your legs in winter, strap two skis to your feet. | This character is a combination of 'slow' (which looks similar to the character for 'dusk', but has an extended stroke) and 'ice'. It translates literally as 'slow ice', which alludes to ice building up slowly over winter. | ||||||
