Yong

This Chinese character translates to bravery, courage, or valor. It represents a combination of mental resolve and physical strength.

Meaning

In Chinese philosophy and everyday language, this word is rarely used to describe mere recklessness. It is often categorized into different levels:

Physical Bravery: Literally "small bravery," referring to impulsive acts of daring or physical prowess.

Moral Courage: Literally "great bravery," referring to the internal strength required to stand by one's principles or face adversity with a calm mind.

Calligraphic Note

In calligraphy, this character is a popular choice because of its balanced structure. The sweeping hook of the "strength" radical at the bottom provides a firm foundation, visually anchoring the character to suggest stability and resilience.
