The Chinese characters 哭 meaning is cry; wail; weep.
This Chinese character uses two mouths (口) to express intense action of the mouth, resembling the wailing of dogs (犬); so dog with two mouths means “wail”: 哭. Two mouths may effectively express crying and howling, but certainly, “two buckets of tears,” according to the proverb, “will not heal a bruise.”

seeing as no one has commented yet, i would like to thank you for the effort you have spent in your website. although I do not have the time to take chinese lessons, I try to maintain your method of taking some time off everyday to practice characters and strokes. I look forward to taking proper lessons and to perhaps visiting your country one day.
