Do 衣服 and 衣饰 carry different connotations or are they synonyms? Pinning down a source would be tricky. You'll have to look at the context that it is used online and in publications. 衣饰 is probably closer to "fashion" than clothing in general. The word is made up of 2 characters, 衣 ("clothes/to clothe") and 饰, generally "decoration/to adorn/to dress up/to impersonate (as in to play a role"). On a side note 服饰 means "clothing/apparel." Take a look at this article: women.sohu.com/20080501/n255968988.shtml |

How do we know what characters correspond to Chinese names? My bad, usually people ask. Like people asking if a person's name is spelled a certain way, most Chinese people ask is it is a certain character. E.g., Your surname is 'Li'? Is that 'Li' as in plum ( 李) or 'Li' as in reason (理) ? |

How did 葉 (leaf as in vegetation) become 叶 when it was simplified? Take a look at the methods and rules of simplification, they're fairly consistent: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/… |
