Shallow water, pale colour, light sleep

Where the picture shows up in 浅

1. 1

   shallow water

   这边水浅，孩子可以玩。

   zhè biān shuǐ qiǎn, háizi kěyǐ wán

   It's shallow on this side, the kids can play.

   Water only up to the ankles, every stone on the bottom in plain view

2. 2

   pale colour

   有浅一点的颜色吗？

   yǒu qiǎn yìdiǎn de yánsè ma

   Do you have a lighter shade?

   Dye thinned out in water, colour sitting only faintly on the cloth

   浅色 means 'light shade'

3. 3

   shallow cut

   伤口很浅，不用缝。

   shāngkǒu hěn qiǎn, bú yòng féng

   The cut is shallow — no stitches needed.

   Only the skin is grazed and the bleeding stops almost at once

4. 4

   little experience

   我的经验还很浅。

   wǒ de jīngyàn hái hěn qiǎn

   My experience is still shallow.

   A bowl where pouring water in hits the bottom at one finger joint

5. 5

   light sleep

   我睡得很浅，一点声音就醒。

   wǒ shuì de hěn qiǎn, yìdiǎn shēngyīn jiù xǐng

   I sleep lightly — the smallest sound wakes me.

   A door clicks shut and the eyelids come straight up
