Haha agreed

When I first saw your post I was like "No, wife is 老婆" but then I remembered that is Chinese. The joys of studying two Hanzi/Kanji using languages.

The next Kanji means "bay" and is the second character in the word "Taiwan". I like it because of the high stroke count, along with the fact Taiwan is my second favorite foreign country next to Japan.

This is a Japanese kanji thread. I don't think the kanji that aren't used in Japan should be introduced in this thread. It will only confuse the Japanese learners. Hope you understand. :)

湾　（わん） = a bay

I like

水 and 泳

Which i didn't find out until later go together to make "Swimming" which was quite nice to find out.

水泳 すいえい

"ワン" is an on reading (meaning it came from Chinese), therefore, it should be written in Katakana (the "boxy" script used for spelling foreign words), as opposed to Hiragana (the "curvy" script). I think that on readings should be be spelled in Katakana, or else Japanese learners will be confused. Hope you understand :)

Sorry if the above confused you, I worded poorly.
