大 Dà

big

“大”字像一个为正面站着的顶天立地的男人。他张开双臂。叉开双腿，十分威武。中国人觉得，世界上“大”的东西有三样：提案，地和人自己，“大人”就是“成年人”的意思。

The character "da" looks like a standing man of gigantic stature. His outstretched arms and straddled legs give him an awe-inspiring appearance. Chinese people believe that there are three things in the world that can be described as big: heaven, earth and oneself. Today, "da ren" (literally big person) mean "adult."
