乌
wū
abbr. for country names that begin with 烏|乌[wu1]: Ukraine 烏克蘭|乌克兰[Wu1 ke4 lan2], Uzbekistan 烏茲別克斯坦|乌兹别克斯坦[Wu1 zi1 bie2 ke4 si1 tan3] etc
surname Wu; crow; black
a picture of 乌 → a crow with no visible eye, lost in black
Compare it to 鸟 (bird): 乌 is missing the dot that marks the eye — because a crow's eye disappears into its all-black feathers. That absent dot is the memory anchor.
那只乌鸦停在树枝上，一动不动。
nà zhī wū yā tíng zài shù zhī shàng , yī dòng bù dòng 。
that crow perched on a branch, not moving at all.
她的头发又黑又亮，乌黑得像夜晚一样。
tā de tóu fa yòu hēi yòu liàng , wū hēi de xiàng yè wǎn yī yàng 。
her hair is dark and shiny, as jet-black as the night.
