| 無 | without | NO HEAD | |
| 焦 | char / scorch | HEAD |
OK,without (無) is basically like the "scorch" kanji ( 焦) but WITHOUT the little line that sticks up in the center.
As usual, we'll call the sticky-uppy line a 'head'.
So you can say,
The top of WITHOUT is flat, because it's WITHOUT a 'HEAD'.
Or, alternatively, "You're scorching my HEAD!!!"
