To many foreigners, Chinese characters may seem like a random（任意的）mix of lines. Most of them feel it hard to tell apart similar characters and remember their meanings. But to Lena, a 20-year-old girl from Northern Virginia, the US, each one tells its own story.
In Lena's eyes, the character kan（侃）looks like a singing jellyfish（水母）, and the traditional form of wu（無）reminds her of a sheep. She is good at finding tiny details and always connects Chinese characters with lively things in daily life. Then, she tried to draw them as she saw them. To her surprise, after she posted the picture of wu on social media, many people loved it.
Lena started using social media months ago. Then, she noticed that many Chinese characters “stood out as looking like different objects”. She gradually fell in love with the charm hidden behind each Chinese character. Now, thanks to Lena's drawings, more people are thinking about language, art and cross-cultural communication deeply.
Some people think that Lena seems to understand the beauty of Chinese characters even better than many Chinese people. Her unique views open up a new way for people to learn traditional Chinese culture.
“It's because you are all used to seeing the characters,” said Lena. She said that the opposite is also true. For example, she learned from her Chinese friends that the letters “orz” together look like a person kneeling（下跪）to express a sense of helplessness. But it carries no meaning in English. Such interesting cultural differences always bring her endless joy.
Lena's story shows that language is more than just words. She also encourages Chinese learners to talk with native（母语的）speakers. “It's more fun if you teach each other languages, for it is truly a wonderful cultural exchange.”
