Justice / Righteousness

Also means: honor loyalty morality righteousness.

This is about doing the right thing or making the right decision, not because it's easy, but because it's ethically and morally correct. No matter the outcome or result, one does not lose face if tempering proper justice.

This character can also be defined as righteousness, justice, morality, honor, or "right conduct". In a more expanded definition, it can mean loyalty to friends, loyalty to the public good, or patriotism. This idea of loyalty and friendship comes from the fact that you will treat those you are loyal to with morality and justice.

This is also one of the five tenets of Confucius's doctrine as well as a virtue of Bushido (the Way of the Warrior or Samurai).

Pronounced "yi" in Mandarin Chinese and Korean (sounds like saying the letter "E"), and like "gi" in Japanese (sounds like "gee"). Same meaning in all three languages.
