半 bàn half

When one divides ( bā divide) something, he gets two ( èr two) halves and the cut in the middle is often as straight as a stick ( gǔn stick).

Historically correct alternative: An impressive example of making a half of something is to divide ( bā divide) an entire bull ( niú ox) into two halves.

Note: The first stroke of the radical for bull ( niú ox) is not written.
