用法
- 'To tell apart, distinguish by the senses' - 辨别 (biànbié), 辨认 (biànrèn) to identify, 分辨 (fēnbiàn) to differentiate.
- Do NOT confuse the character with 辩 (argue): 辨 has 刀/丿 (a knife) in the middle - you distinguish by cutting things apart. 辩 has 言 (speech) in the middle - you argue with words. Same sound biàn.
