As someone who was born in a place that has nothing to do with China, we don't speak Chinese and we don't learn it, but I do because it's just a fun passtime, I third this comment.
Fun fact: '民' means people. This letter means 'A person that an eye is stabbed'. In ancient china, peoples used to make slaves half-blind so they cannot run away or rebel to their master. Nowdays, this letter is used in words like '民主主義'(Democarcy) and '中華人民公和國'(People's Republic of China). And this explanation has no exaggeration or cration at all.
@Qiyunwu oh well it was another thing sorryyy :) the one I’m thinking is another analog horror (that’s very damn good) that features a character called oracle.
I am an Asian-American with Indonesian and Chinese descent and I am impressed with the way this built up and everything! Let's break it down why this is so good: The video begins in a manner similar to various videos of this nature; if you look up "oracle bone script chinese character guessing game" on UA-cam, you'll find a fair share of similar normal UA-cam Kids videos. 0:37 is where it showcases how various radicals combine together based on the combination of their respective concepts, which foreshadows a piece of horror present in the background of this video. The animation shows a house (广) with a man (人, converted to its auxiliary form 亻), followed by the presence of a bird (隹, 0:32), combining into the figure represented by 䧹 (which, strangely, also means "eagle" or "bird of prey" in reality). In the context of the video, the bird 隹 flies away and escapes, causing the other bird (烏, 0:28) to retrieve it, ultimately building up the complex character 鷹 (Eagle, 0:55, lit. "trained bird for hunts other birds"). The video reverts to normal with characters like 日, 旦, 晶, and 木, 本, 末, which cover the addition of elements and reduplication of radicals. Interestingly, the adding line is red, which can be chalked up to color for emphasis of the difference (though it becomes evident that this gains a darker connotation later on). The concept of reduplication is revisited in the forms of 林 and 森 which both refer to forests, but by 1:15 the video glitches out with the line of 森森森森森森森森森森森森森森森森森森森森森森森 filling the screen. There appears to be an implication of the forest being a major location of interest. The video cuts to the 人 character before a line is drawn through it to yield 大, which means "big". Real-life etymology states that this is because of the glyph representing a man stretching his arms out like a fisherman exaggerating their catch. At 1:26 the video gets this COMPLETELY wrong, to horrific effect. "Big: Human execution" in light of this, the character now looks more like a human being having been executed, emphasized by the red line bisecting the glyph. It almost looks as if, rather than being a simple modifier that was simply colored for emphasis like in earlier instances, the red line now indicates precisely how the figure depicted was killed. This has precedence in Japanese culture, where swordmakers famously tested their wares on condemned criminals. Let's circle back to Japan, this will come up later despite the video ostensibly about CHINESE characters. The video returns to normal with glyphs representing humans or human parts like "child", "woman", and "hand", until it reaches "mouth", 口 at 1:40. Unlike in the previous entries, the modern character shows FIRST, with the ancient version being completely blank. Then suddenly a hyper-realistic mouth shows up on screen before everything cuts off. (in real life, the ancient symbol looked something more like Ʉ) When it returns, we begin with a second step-by-step combination, but with a much darker topic. We start with "A human", followed by "A bounded human", then "A bounded human cries" and "A bounded human cries in fire". This is reminiscent of the "faux-tymology" of the 大 character, except forming the character 𦰩. Here's the thing: This example is ABSOLUTELY *TRUE*. The character 𦰩 is a variant of the character 堇, and in ancient forms of this symbol, it really *did* mean a human being burned alive as a sacrifice. See the below references talking about this speculation: Li, Xueqin (李學勤) (2012) 《字源》, Tianjin: 天津古籍出版社 blog.goo.ne.jp/ishiseiji/e/99ef4faa9aeb4a5afcf80c3340ae123c The spectacle ends with the combination of 𦰩 and 隹 to signify "a bounded human cries in fire attacked by bird". Ultimately, we see the actual glyph we are building up to: 難. "Disaster" (real-life translation is closer to "hard" or "difficult"). Normalcy resumes with the next glyphs, which represent animals (虫 for "snake/worm", 魚 for "fish", 龜 for "turtle", 龍 for "dragon") which is followed by an unusual choice of glyph, 鬼 which is used to represent "ghost" (EDIT: Some commenters have pointed out that this is a clever bit of five-second foreshadowing concerning the subsequent segments of this video). Then we get to this: 彁 The shot lingers on a construction comprised of two mouths, one on top of another like a fraction and surrounded by what appears to be brackets. The mouths are the same hyper-realistic one we saw earlier. Then the caption appears: "please stay away from this creature" We are immediately bombarded with a rapid-fire selection of truly horrific pictographs, all but one of which translate to the same warning: "please stay away from this creature". These glyphs are: 妛 槞 挧 駲 彘 袮 蟐 窫寙 墸 暃 壥 閠 The lone glyph that has a different caption is 椦, which appears to show a giant hand reaching down towards a kneeling human in front of a tree with walls at each side. The caption reads "you have no way to run". The thing about all of the glyphs with the creature warnings: except for 窫寙, NONE of the kanji have any coherent meaning in Japanese. They are part of a set of 12 characters called "ghost characters" (a term sneakily foreshadowed by the use of 鬼 immediately preceding it), which are kanji characters of no known provenance recorded in the 1997 JIS X 0208, originally established as the JIS C 6226 in 1978, with revisions in 1983, 1990, and 1997. The purpose of this Japanese Industrial Standard was to catalog all known kanji in common use in Japan, leading to a set of 6,355 kanji characters, and codify them into 2-byte format as a precursor to the current UTF-8 Unicode standard. These characters have been found from numerous sources both Chinese and Japanese, dating all the way back to the 6th century AD. A notable inclusion is the 窫寙, which is a misspelling of 窫窳. This is a creature from Chinese mythology referred to as the Yàyǔ, a monster mentioned in the Han Dynasty Classic of Mountains and Seas, and the Huainanzi (Writings of the Huainan Masters) which dates to sometime in the second century BC. The Yàyǔ is described to be a compound creature with serpent, draconic, and human features that resides in the Ejin River of northern China and feeds on humans. Notable features that this video touches upon include the fact that it emits a noise like a child crying (remember this for later), and that it was once a benevolent dragon but not only died but was later reanimated as a revenant. The implication of this inclusion is evident: the 12 known ghost kanji are representations of entities that all prey upon humans. Entities that you MUST NOT encounter under any circumstances. And if the 椦 glyph is any indication, you are already too late. Something else worth mentioning is that two pictograms (彘 and 窫寙) bear red lines, similar to how 大 was depicted with a red crossbar. Is it possible that the ancients sacrificed the condemned to these entities in an effort to appease them? Chillingly, the final glyph returns to the simple 人, but this time with no translation except for the caption: "please stay away from this creature". This speaks volumes, and could be interpreted in many ways, but with the inclusion of this character among the inhuman creatures, one interpretation stands out: cannibalism. With that, the video ends with a group of pictographs: water, a burning man, and a child under a roof: "A Trapped child that watching it's family cries in fire beside a river" (Remember how the Yàyǔ made a sound that mimicked a crying child?). And the ultimate evolution of this image? The very title of this video: 漢字, or "Chinese Characters". Even that has some interesting aspects of its derivation; dividing into the two characters 漢 and 字, we see much of what we have previously discussed, but with the same horrifying spin that we've been previously exploring throughout the video. The glyph 漢 is a combination of 水 (in the modifying form of 氵) and 𦰩, which we have previously discussed. In THIS character, however, the modified glyph is in fact an abbreviation of 暵, which is used in this case as a proper name, in this case, the Hanshui River, a tributary of the Yangtze. This is a phono-semantic compound which is used in this context to refer to the Han Chinese (with the semantic component being 水 and the phonetic component being 暵), for it is this ideogram that was ultimately used as a name for the people. 字 on the other hand DOES in fact mean "letter", "symbol", or "character", which in this case refers to the Chinese characters. It is indeed comprised of the glyphs for a house (宀), and a child (子), where the latter is used once again as the phonetic component for the overall character. In the context of this particular fanciful interpretation of Chinese history and the development of Chinese writing, the hidden implications make themselves evident.
Amazing. Personally, having no knowledge of the language, the way the footage unravels into vaguely threatening depictions reminded me a lot of those long-term nuclear waste warning messages. It's fascinating how stuff like this is capable of instilling fear, like it's just coded in us.

English speaker here! i really loved watching this as it reminded me of another analog horror video the way i interpret this video, it ties more into ancient language describing "something" and this "something" is what they saw and made them scared, so scared that it had to be written in chinese characters and it has probably lost it's meaning, the chinese ancestors saw something and it had to be passed down for generations
Kind of like the biohazard or radioactive symbol right? Like how in a millennium the same symbols for danger would be lost or changed meaning. I agree it’s a fresh take on analog horror that’s been so oversaturated lately
I also want to add that the Kanji shown in 2:36 and later are a classification of Kanji called _Yūrei Moji_ or Ghost Kanji. These Kanji don't exist and were accidentally created when the JIS kanji sets was being compiled. I think that this fact really makes the video more beautiful as it adds on to the narrative of your interpretation, by implying that the Kanji's weren't a mistake and really did hold meaning, but was lost in time because whatever it was describing either fell into obscurity, was hiding from society, or was being hid from society (spook factor!). P.S. I just realized that a Chinese(?) comment has already pointed this out but, oh well!
By the way, not to break the horror, but the characters from the last parts are all either rarely used, are kanji-only (meaning they only exist in japanese), or have been simplified to, well, simplified chinese. Though it is interesting to try to see this from someone who doesn't know chinese and reads them purely from a pictography standpoint.
From what I was given, I think the cursed characters are: A ghost(?) with two mouths A female demon who lives in a mountain A dragon who lives in a forest A mass of sentient hands? A giant fish with...something Two humans killing (sacrificing?) a human at sunrise A monster with giant hands who feast on humans, who lives at a forest near rivers Two houses (maybe temples) each guarded by a human looking guard A giant heavenly snake A massive sacrifice in a forest to appease a dragon A cursed word that can end someone's life A multi-armed solar deity (or demon) Child sacrifice at a temple A massive catastrophe caussed by the sun? Something that looks like a human but it's not Of course these are just my interpretations. I don't speak Chinese nor can I understand each character
I like the constantly shifting uneasiness of the atmosphere. Also the foreshadowing that humans were prey in your narrative. And the mouth do serve as a minor jumpscare because of how sudden it is.
Note that there is a character "鬼" ("ghost") shown before that madness enrolls, conveying that those words after the word "鬼" were ghost characters, meaning they dont have any meaning. (yet)
Damn this Analog horror about Chinese Characters looks sick! This video shows you how to learn Chinese Characters but as this video goes on, the characters look terrifying and how terrifying the story behind these characters. shiver me timbers
most aren't accurate lel. 大 is just a human stretching their arms out as far as possible. 難 just means difficult, the bird on the left is for phonetic reasons and the part on the right doesn't really mean any particular thing.
i felt like many people missed the fact that the penultimate part of the video uses phantom Kanji which bears no meaning on it's own i also appreciate the fact that this kinda gave it some story
This is one of the best analog horrors I've ever seen. The use of Chinese characters to describe ancient lovercraftian horrors is very clever. From what I was given, I think the cursed characters are: A ghost(?) with two mouths A female demon who lives in a mountain A dragon who lives in a forest A mass of sentient hands? A giant fish with...something Two humans killing (sacrificing?) a human at sunrise A monster with giant hands who feast on humans, who lives at a forest near rivers Two houses (maybe temples) each guarded by a human looking guard A giant heavenly snake A massive sacrifice in a forest to appease a dragon A cursed word that can end someone's life A multi-armed solar deity (or demon) Child sacrifice at a temple A massive catastrophe caussed by the sun? Something that looks like a human but it's not Of course these are just my interpretations. I don't speak Chinese nor can I understand each character
How did you get 'caused by the sun' from the second to last one, since it doesn't have the oracle bone script 'sun' radical? Cool interpretations otherwise though.
before the word 弓哥 there was the word 鬼 (ghost), and 弓哥 is infact a 鬼字/幽灵字 (ghost word), 幽灵字 means that the Chinese character has no meaning, like a few hundred years ago it could’ve had a meaning, but it got lost to time. And all the words after 弓哥 are all ghosts words, which I think is very fascinating :D edit: the only word I think isn’t a ghost word is 人 (human), 罪 (crime) and 閠, which I am not sure the meaning of
Dang, this analog horror is interesting. Yet it technically also resembles a music video. And I like the suspense of some parts where they add lines, or some parts where some of the characters go wrong Thank you for making this

I am an Asian-American with Indonesian and Chinese descent and I am impressed with the way this built up and everything! Let's break it down why this is so good:
The video begins in a manner similar to various videos of this nature; if you look up "oracle bone script chinese character guessing game" on UA-cam, you'll find a fair share of similar normal UA-cam Kids videos.
0:37 is where it showcases how various radicals combine together based on the combination of their respective concepts, which foreshadows a piece of horror present in the background of this video. The animation shows a house (广) with a man (人, converted to its auxiliary form 亻), followed by the presence of a bird (隹, 0:32), combining into the figure represented by 䧹 (which, strangely, also means "eagle" or "bird of prey" in reality). In the context of the video, the bird 隹 flies away and escapes, causing the other bird (烏, 0:28) to retrieve it, ultimately building up the complex character 鷹 (Eagle, 0:55, lit. "trained bird for hunts other birds").
The video reverts to normal with characters like 日, 旦, 晶, and 木, 本, 末, which cover the addition of elements and reduplication of radicals. Interestingly, the adding line is red, which can be chalked up to color for emphasis of the difference (though it becomes evident that this gains a darker connotation later on). The concept of reduplication is revisited in the forms of 林 and 森 which both refer to forests, but by 1:15 the video glitches out with the line of 森森森森森森森森森森森森森森森森森森森森森森森 filling the screen. There appears to be an implication of the forest being a major location of interest.
The video cuts to the 人 character before a line is drawn through it to yield 大, which means "big". Real-life etymology states that this is because of the glyph representing a man stretching his arms out like a fisherman exaggerating their catch.
At 1:26 the video gets this COMPLETELY wrong, to horrific effect.
"Big: Human execution"
in light of this, the character now looks more like a human being having been executed, emphasized by the red line bisecting the glyph. It almost looks as if, rather than being a simple modifier that was simply colored for emphasis like in earlier instances, the red line now indicates precisely how the figure depicted was killed. This has precedence in Japanese culture, where swordmakers famously tested their wares on condemned criminals. Let's circle back to Japan, this will come up later despite the video ostensibly about CHINESE characters.
The video returns to normal with glyphs representing humans or human parts like "child", "woman", and "hand", until it reaches "mouth", 口 at 1:40. Unlike in the previous entries, the modern character shows FIRST, with the ancient version being completely blank. Then suddenly a hyper-realistic mouth shows up on screen before everything cuts off. (in real life, the ancient symbol looked something more like Ʉ)
When it returns, we begin with a second step-by-step combination, but with a much darker topic. We start with "A human", followed by "A bounded human", then "A bounded human cries" and "A bounded human cries in fire". This is reminiscent of the "faux-tymology" of the 大 character, except forming the character 𦰩.
Here's the thing: This example is ABSOLUTELY *TRUE*.
The character 𦰩 is a variant of the character 堇, and in ancient forms of this symbol, it really *did* mean a human being burned alive as a sacrifice. See the below references talking about this speculation:
Li, Xueqin (李學勤) (2012) 《字源》, Tianjin: 天津古籍出版社
blog.goo.ne.jp/ishiseiji/e/99ef4faa9aeb4a5afcf80c3340ae123c
The spectacle ends with the combination of 𦰩 and 隹 to signify "a bounded human cries in fire attacked by bird". Ultimately, we see the actual glyph we are building up to: 難. "Disaster" (real-life translation is closer to "hard" or "difficult").
Normalcy resumes with the next glyphs, which represent animals (虫 for "snake/worm", 魚 for "fish", 龜 for "turtle", 龍 for "dragon") which is followed by an unusual choice of glyph, 鬼 which is used to represent "ghost" (EDIT: Some commenters have pointed out that this is a clever bit of five-second foreshadowing concerning the subsequent segments of this video).
Then we get to this: 彁
The shot lingers on a construction comprised of two mouths, one on top of another like a fraction and surrounded by what appears to be brackets. The mouths are the same hyper-realistic one we saw earlier. Then the caption appears:
"please stay away from this creature"
We are immediately bombarded with a rapid-fire selection of truly horrific pictographs, all but one of which translate to the same warning: "please stay away from this creature". These glyphs are: 妛 槞 挧 駲 彘 袮 蟐 窫寙 墸 暃 壥 閠
The lone glyph that has a different caption is 椦, which appears to show a giant hand reaching down towards a kneeling human in front of a tree with walls at each side. The caption reads "you have no way to run".
The thing about all of the glyphs with the creature warnings: except for 窫寙, NONE of the kanji have any coherent meaning in Japanese. They are part of a set of 12 characters called "ghost characters" (a term sneakily foreshadowed by the use of 鬼 immediately preceding it), which are kanji characters of no known provenance recorded in the 1997 JIS X 0208, originally established as the JIS C 6226 in 1978, with revisions in 1983, 1990, and 1997. The purpose of this Japanese Industrial Standard was to catalog all known kanji in common use in Japan, leading to a set of 6,355 kanji characters, and codify them into 2-byte format as a precursor to the current UTF-8 Unicode standard. These characters have been found from numerous sources both Chinese and Japanese, dating all the way back to the 6th century AD.
A notable inclusion is the 窫寙, which is a misspelling of 窫窳. This is a creature from Chinese mythology referred to as the Yàyǔ, a monster mentioned in the Han Dynasty Classic of Mountains and Seas, and the Huainanzi (Writings of the Huainan Masters) which dates to sometime in the second century BC. The Yàyǔ is described to be a compound creature with serpent, draconic, and human features that resides in the Ejin River of northern China and feeds on humans. Notable features that this video touches upon include the fact that it emits a noise like a child crying (remember this for later), and that it was once a benevolent dragon but not only died but was later reanimated as a revenant.
The implication of this inclusion is evident: the 12 known ghost kanji are representations of entities that all prey upon humans. Entities that you MUST NOT encounter under any circumstances. And if the 椦 glyph is any indication, you are already too late. Something else worth mentioning is that two pictograms (彘 and 窫寙) bear red lines, similar to how 大 was depicted with a red crossbar. Is it possible that the ancients sacrificed the condemned to these entities in an effort to appease them?
Chillingly, the final glyph returns to the simple 人, but this time with no translation except for the caption: "please stay away from this creature". This speaks volumes, and could be interpreted in many ways, but with the inclusion of this character among the inhuman creatures, one interpretation stands out: cannibalism.
With that, the video ends with a group of pictographs: water, a burning man, and a child under a roof: "A Trapped child that watching it's family cries in fire beside a river" (Remember how the Yàyǔ made a sound that mimicked a crying child?). And the ultimate evolution of this image? The very title of this video: 漢字, or "Chinese Characters".
Even that has some interesting aspects of its derivation; dividing into the two characters 漢 and 字, we see much of what we have previously discussed, but with the same horrifying spin that we've been previously exploring throughout the video. The glyph 漢 is a combination of 水 (in the modifying form of 氵) and 𦰩, which we have previously discussed. In THIS character, however, the modified glyph is in fact an abbreviation of 暵, which is used in this case as a proper name, in this case, the Hanshui River, a tributary of the Yangtze. This is a phono-semantic compound which is used in this context to refer to the Han Chinese (with the semantic component being 水 and the phonetic component being 暵), for it is this ideogram that was ultimately used as a name for the people.
字 on the other hand DOES in fact mean "letter", "symbol", or "character", which in this case refers to the Chinese characters. It is indeed comprised of the glyphs for a house (宀), and a child (子), where the latter is used once again as the phonetic component for the overall character. In the context of this particular fanciful interpretation of Chinese history and the development of Chinese writing, the hidden implications make themselves evident.

the town's name was 山+女 stacked vertically but the character was very rare so when they had to type it, they would glue together 山 and 女 to form the complete character
when they used a photocopier to digitize documents with the character, the line where the 2 characters had been glued showed up, so it was mistakenly entered in as 山+一+女 stacked vertically, which is a character without any meaning nor present in any name

It means that human is eating someone
English speaker here! i really loved watching this as it reminded me of another analog horror video
the way i interpret this video, it ties more into ancient language describing "something" and this "something" is what they saw and made them scared, so scared that it had to be written in chinese characters and it has probably lost it's meaning, the chinese ancestors saw something and it had to be passed down for generations
Kind of like the biohazard or radioactive symbol right? Like how in a millennium the same symbols for danger would be lost or changed meaning. I agree it’s a fresh take on analog horror that’s been so oversaturated lately
It's honestly interesting. It makes me appreciate my philosophy class. Thank you semiotics.
I also want to add that the Kanji shown in 2:36 and later are a classification of Kanji called _Yūrei Moji_ or Ghost Kanji. These Kanji don't exist and were accidentally created when the JIS kanji sets was being compiled. I think that this fact really makes the video more beautiful as it adds on to the narrative of your interpretation, by implying that the Kanji's weren't a mistake and really did hold meaning, but was lost in time because whatever it was describing either fell into obscurity, was hiding from society, or was being hid from society (spook factor!).
P.S. I just realized that a Chinese(?) comment has already pointed this out but, oh well!
By the way, not to break the horror, but the characters from the last parts are all either rarely used, are kanji-only (meaning they only exist in japanese), or have been simplified to, well, simplified chinese. Though it is interesting to try to see this from someone who doesn't know chinese and reads them purely from a pictography standpoint.
From what I was given, I think the cursed characters are:
A ghost(?) with two mouths
A female demon who lives in a mountain
A dragon who lives in a forest
A mass of sentient hands?
A giant fish with...something
Two humans killing (sacrificing?) a human at sunrise
A monster with giant hands who feast on humans, who lives at a forest near rivers
Two houses (maybe temples) each guarded by a human looking guard
A giant heavenly snake
A massive sacrifice in a forest to appease a dragon
A cursed word that can end someone's life
A multi-armed solar deity (or demon)
Child sacrifice at a temple
A massive catastrophe caussed by the sun?
Something that looks like a human but it's not
Of course these are just my interpretations. I don't speak Chinese nor can I understand each character
其實我相信如果是華人來看這段影片，應該會有特別不一樣的感觸
特別是「閏」這個字，將象形代入現在某些特殊網路用法的解讀後會有一番黑色幽默
還有結尾的漢字象形解讀，讓「"chinese" "character"」解釋起來有十分特別的內涵性

这个做到是真的强，他首先将人引入一个象形文字的概念，表明每个文字都拥有对应的图像，很巧的是“鹰”那段，用动态的方式加深了象形字的印象，紧接着就是一个高能，也就是“森”那段，从单个常规的“木”字组合到令人感到强行甚至粗糙组合的“森”。第二次加深印象是在“难”那边，用一副堪称残忍的图像表明了“难”，同时也塑造了一种恐怖和对后续字解读的可能性。而“龙”“鬼”“彁”就像是拉入高能的前奏，因为这几个字是通常无法在现实找到原型的，与之前在现实中具有原型的字完全不同，形成疑惑，特别是“彁”这个幽灵文字，它本身不具备任何意义，两张嘴也提高了它的诡异程度，而这个字存在的原因是什么？当这个疑惑提出时，紧接着就是一次由复杂字组成的高能，每个字的信息都非常多，而又难以解释，我认为就是这种大量信息只能观于表面却无法知晓内核让人产生了一定的恐惧感，不过应该还有对答案的预设（比如之前的“难”）最后的“人”，足以让人再次思考，这个字是否真的有那么简单。
总的来说这个模拟恐怖我认为真的非常出色，也有可能是汉字太贴近生活的原因，虽然作者可能没想那么多，但我认为这是一个很不错的套路

As a fluent Chinese speaker I am absolutely overjoyed regarding this :D
WE BE LEARNING CHINESE WITH THIS ONE 🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥‼‼‼‼
真厲害，原本以為只是另外一個普通的analog horror ，但把我嚇得不輕啊！從創意和氛圍來看，基本上是完美的。真厲害，繼續加油！
他有一個魅力，讓我想要一看再看
진심인데, 대체 이게 뭐가 무서워요..? 억지로 노이즈 효과를 더했다고 덜덜 무서워하는 이유를 모르겠어요. 이걸 무서워하는 당신이 제일 충격적이고 무섭네요.
ガチ怖すぎて涙出た
最後の警告文もめちゃめちゃメッセージ性ある文章に見えて鳥肌たった
Blud what?

jfc the translations scared me
im asian american and reading this was like, going through an acid trip almost
实在是太有创意感了，很羡慕你这样慢慢的能够加一个又一个的恐怖事件，特有意思。
“鷹”跟“難”還有最後一段的“漢字”真的是天才
"이 영상 보고 한자 시험 망침"
Damn this Analog horror about Chinese Characters looks sick!
This video shows you how to learn Chinese Characters but as this video goes on, the characters look terrifying and how terrifying the story behind these characters.
shiver me timbers
most aren't accurate lel. 大 is just a human stretching their arms out as far as possible. 難 just means difficult, the bird on the left is for phonetic reasons and the part on the right doesn't really mean any particular thing.
@@HansVinlin
Yeah
But It is analog horror
As a native speaker, it still interesting
@@HansVinlinI think 難 can be disaster (as in 災難)
朋友, 这个视频的有趣之处在于它对于古代汉字, 也就是甲骨文的灵活运用以及曲解, 这种模拟恐怖实际上非常有趣, 作为汉字母语的人, 我非常喜欢这种视频
an osc member on ðis semi-obscure analog horror video?
very very interesting
做的 超級 棒的啦😙
（看到彁的時候PTSD都要發了
封面:哈哈 又有新迷因誕生了
內容:💀💀💀💀💀💀(詭異氛圍滿分)
興味をそそられる内容だけでなく、サウンドとアナログホラーチックな雰囲気がとてもいいね。

哈哈哈哈哈哈看到你这条瞬间就不恐怖了😂
原本以為你說得是中國（相鄰國家數量最多）
瞬间觉得這是一个搞笑影片了😂😂😂
DUOLINGO MUST BE WILDIN 🗣️🔥🔥🗣️🔥🔥
i felt like many people missed the fact that the penultimate part of the video uses phantom Kanji which bears no meaning on it's own
i also appreciate the fact that this kinda gave it some story
Will say that yes these back half of the video is ghost characters in Japanese kanji. But in Chinese, some are legitimate characters.
演算法推我這個不錯的東西，感覺很有潛力做成系列
映像のクオリティがとても高いです！ 재밌는 영상 잘봤습니다
This is one of the best analog horrors I've ever seen. The use of Chinese characters to describe ancient lovercraftian horrors is very clever. From what I was given, I think the cursed characters are:
A ghost(?) with two mouths
A female demon who lives in a mountain
A dragon who lives in a forest
A mass of sentient hands?
A giant fish with...something
Two humans killing (sacrificing?) a human at sunrise
A monster with giant hands who feast on humans, who lives at a forest near rivers
Two houses (maybe temples) each guarded by a human looking guard
A giant heavenly snake
A massive sacrifice in a forest to appease a dragon
A cursed word that can end someone's life
A multi-armed solar deity (or demon)
Child sacrifice at a temple
A massive catastrophe caussed by the sun?
Something that looks like a human but it's not
Of course these are just my interpretations. I don't speak Chinese nor can I understand each character
one of them was 閠.I am a Chinese person and an English person.
some of them are made up.
@@soyunhing6943 And what does that mean?
@@rezandrarizkyirianto-1933it’s something about years…I think?
How did you get 'caused by the sun' from the second to last one, since it doesn't have the oracle bone script 'sun' radical? Cool interpretations otherwise though.
before the word 弓哥 there was the word 鬼 (ghost), and 弓哥 is infact a 鬼字/幽灵字 (ghost word), 幽灵字 means that the Chinese character has no meaning, like a few hundred years ago it could’ve had a meaning, but it got lost to time. And all the words after 弓哥 are all ghosts words, which I think is very fascinating :D
edit: the only word I think isn’t a ghost word is 人 (human), 罪 (crime) and 閠, which I am not sure the meaning of
閏年-天文曆法裏面會使用到的一個字
@@lbwnb3470谢谢！！
閠 means extra
Fun fact, the 「弓哥」character is in Unicode as 「彁」.
We're using Chinese characters not kanji, dude.
有点厉害的，越往后看越有一种莫明的压迫感，希望更多人看到
慕名而来，我真的超爱这个创意的！🥰好像突然发现了中式恐怖新方向
除了春聯、古宅，另一個讓我毛骨悚然的東西。
Dang, this analog horror is interesting. Yet it technically also resembles a music video.
And I like the suspense of some parts where they add lines, or some parts where some of the characters go wrong
Thank you for making this
我突然经过这个视频。我觉得挺好看的，会让观众感到一点不安，但也不会像其他analog horror一样，看了三天睡不着(ノдヽ)，而且也挺有创造力的，能让老外们认识我们的漢字。还有求求您做更多像这样的analog horror吧，真的太好看了！！！好像有什么故事在隐藏着!
This is a new kind of analog horror i love. It's just symbols that have a lot of possible meaning in this series'(?) lore.
well, those are actually ancient chinese writing, but um.. now it looks, creepy 💀💀
@@miaomiaoxx i know lol i just used different wording
概念跟構想都好棒，沒想到還能用字義字形來創造模擬恐怖‥！
而且因為好奇查了一下彁是什麼，才知道原來有幽靈漢字的存在，在傳承中可能因為各種原因錯誤或是丟失其義的字，本身就有些靈異的感覺，合在一起真的是迸出新滋味，太酷了超級佩服‥！🙏
其实这个字是音游圈很出名的一个曲子的名称
老實說我覺得滿有趣的。點進來之後有了聲音才開始感覺到詭異，而且再加上各種出人意料的片段，讓觀眾能瞭解到恐怖片使觀眾害怕的幾個原因。
時間表在這喔~:
1:04 詭異的木字演化
1:18 人類處刑
1:40 奇怪的口
2:34 幽靈漢字 「彁」
2:48 高能片段!
3:04 漢字...
不得不說 這次的Analog Horror 真的做到細思及恐 我跟朋友聊天時都會不知不覺想到這高能片段的BGM 雖然很恐怖 可是這部Analog Horror真的做得很好 尤其是那高能片段 一想到就起雞皮疙瘩...
好棒的创意，而且视频的恐怖氛围渲染的太强了
幽霊文字の使いはめっちゃ面白かったなー
ありがとうおすすめ機能
ビリビリの方だともう100万とかいってるらしいけどこっちでももっと流行れ...
很有創意，連甲骨文也能做成恐怖東西，你應該要快出名了
