iceThis radical is similar to “water ”. However, it has one stroke less. In this sense: Water that no longer flows is ice.
eastIn this radical, the sun rises behind a tree in the east. The radical has been simplified to 东. In some characters, such as 拣, there is an additional short horizontal line. For reasons of simplicity, this is nevertheless also understood as "east".
