In Chinese, '早安' (zǎo ān) literally means 'early peace' (zǎo = early/morning, ān = peace), conveying the wish for a peaceful start to the day, while '晚安' (wǎn ān) means 'late peace' (wǎn = late/night), expressing the wish for peaceful rest; these greetings bookend the day with the same 'peace' wish, reflecting how Chinese culture conceptualizes time through the sun's position rather than darkness.

Zao. Zao. It's morning time in London at the moment. Zao an. Zao means morning or early. An means peace. [music] So, morning peace. Okay. Zao an. Good morning.
>> So, it needs to be kind of full of energy as if it's a new morning.
>> It's up to you.
If you are struggling to get up, then you can say, [music] "Oh, zao." Zao.
That's right. With a cracking sound.
>> Yeah, yeah. When I say wan an, the response I hope for most is to hear the words on core, on core.
Zao zao zao why?
