Symbol of Brotherhood?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Is there a classic chinese symbol (not character) that represents "brotherhood"? (i.e. twin dragons or the like???)

Also: is there a more fancy, caligraphic way to write these two characters for the word "brothers"? shyong di The 'shyong/hing' just looks so simple and plain

Thanks in advance!

You may use one word "義" that implies loyalty to each other.

義 is a traditional character whereas 义 is a simplified one.

I am afraid we don't have any definite Chinese symbols for "brotherhood".

What kind of "brotherhood" were you refering to here?

Something to do with the church? Or just gangsters?

If it's the latter, I think each clan (党派)has its own symbol. It can be "Chrysanthemum", "Double dragons", "Phoenix", etc :wink:
