There is a female character and a big building next to it, so it is the older sister, not the younger one!

The left portion of the character looks like the restroom symbol for a women with the dress and the right portion of the character is like a ladder. So it would be a female that is at the top, hence being an elder sister.

The symbol seems to imply a female chinese character is next to a tall book shelf. It would be easier to remind the character as an older sister who gets the books in the tall book shelf for younger siblings.

The symbol on the left looks like someone hugging another person, which represents female. The symbol on the right looks like a tier, so the sister is older than 2 siblings, representing the three lines.

The left radical means woman and the right one resembles a ladder meaning the highest (or eldest)

When writing the character 姐, think of it as a combination of the characters 女 (nǚ) and 且 (qiě). The 女 represents a woman, and the 且 represents the meaning “and” or “also.” Together, they form the character 姐, which means “older sister.” So, imagine a woman who is strong and independent, symbolizing the role of an older sister. As for starting the sentence differently, how about “Hey, did you know that understanding sensation and perception plays a crucial role in our daily lives?” 😄🌟

A good way to remember this character would to image a female radical character leaning against a cabinet with three places to store items in.
