East
This is the same as the radical for east, so it means east too.
とう
ひがし
None
You see a man walk straight toward the sun rising in the east. It's so bright he can't see anything, so he trips and he gashes (ひがし) his knee on a rock. Yikes… But he gets back up, determined to head east, and, oh no, he gashes his other knee! OK, he should probably give up on going east.
