The character "头 - Tóu " is a pictophonetic character.
 Let's have a look at the traditional writing to make it easier to understand.

In this type of pictophonetic characters, the radical provides the meaning category of the character, while the diaphragm indicates the pronunciation . 

The original meaning of "页- xié" is head, Therefore "头 - Tóu" primarily means "head." It can also refer to a person's mind or intellect, and it can be used to describe the top or leading position of something, such as in a group or series.

La volpe e l’uva è una favola famosissima, che può dare un insegnamento molto importante: non bisogna disprezzare qualcosa solo perché non lo si può ottenere, come fanno le persone che non ammettono di non riuscire a fare qualcosa.

Questa favola breve scritta in origine da Esopo è arrivata a noi grazie anche a Fedro e a mille versioni successive, questa è la mia versione.

A2-B1 La volpe e l'uva, una fiaba di Esopo. 

Hello, everyone. Today, I would like to have a short talk about the phrases from "Minna no Nihongo" Chapter 1. When you say, "I’m from Japan, 日本から来ました," it sounds natural. However, if you are Thai and living in Thailand, saying "タイからきました" sounds very strange. The phrase "～からきました" implies that you are not currently in that place.

Perhaps in English, it would be fine for a Canadian in Canada to say 'I’m from Canada' in a setting with people from various countries. This highlights a subtle difference between Japanese and English.

Thank you for listening today. Currently, my "Minna no Nihongo" course and the group lesson course are available at half price for the first session, so if you're interested, please feel free to message me.

Good luck with your studies!
