Question

個 individual, counter for articles and ilitary units 2 451 10 9 ひと・にんべん・ひとやね 形声 Phonetic This keyword gave me trouble, I could write the kanji from memory but could not remember the keyword the other way around. In such case the dictionary definition can be helpful : "Middle English, single, indivisible". Here we have Mr. T. who is so hardened (all the body workout he´s had) that he became in-dividual, that is, in-divisible. "I pity da foo who can be divided into smaller units.". 973
