女儿
nǚér
daughter
Type: NounsHSK 1
女 (woman) + 儿 (child). Literally 'female child' — that is, 'daughter'.
Traditionally sons were valued more, but today daughters are loved just as much. In fact, in the cities, having a daughter is often seen as luckier, as they tend to care more for ageing parents.
我有一个女儿。
Wǒ yǒu yī gè nǚ'ér.
I have a daughter.
