Hi Boris, fantastic work, glad I discovered your blog!

In Chinese it means younger brother, but then it should come in pairs, like "DaDa" "MaMa". No offence I 'd suggest to write words like "Tiger", "Dragon", good job though. :)

Thanks for your comment!
I believe this piece came from one of postulates of K'ung-tzu, that famous Chinese thinker and social philosopher.

Cheers,
B.

Men, I really love Japanese and Chinese characters. Simple symbols mean a lot and deep meanings.

Grool!
