CHŪ
azakeru

Left: mouth 口, right: morning 朝 (= sunrise

[= sun 日 rises between plants 艹] and the moon 月 is still there.)

This mouth early in the morning cannot but ridicule sneer.

口	mouth	A small square 口 stands for the mouth, and a big square 囗 is an enclosure.
朝	morning
	sun rise	Please be aware that this very similar radical 莫 stands for the sunset. This appears strange, but seems to be fact-based due to: sunset 暮 and morning 朝.
月	month	The radical tsuki stands for moon or month when used at the right side of a character. However the radical niku 肉 that stands for body or body-part is in many cases simplified to 月 and thus looks equal as "moon".

Tip: Go to the radicals that are contained in this character and learn all the characters with this radical systematically!
