书柜

shūguì - bookcase

Another domestic word from my parents' visit. Today, I bought a new, larger bookcase. We did also do more interesting things, namely visit Mount Edgecumbe. I particularly like the character 柜, because if you take away the 木 radical, it looks a bit like a what it describes. The only other character I can think of that does this is 伞, umbrella.
