## Meaning
The radical 冖 (mì) is known as the "cover" or "roof" radical. It appears at the top of many Chinese characters and typically suggests the idea of covering, sheltering, or something related to a roof. However, like many radicals, its presence can sometimes be more related to the phonetic aspect of the character rather than its meaning.
## Examples
Some characters that contain the radical 冖 (mì) include:
[[亭 tíng]] - kiosk, pavilion
[[亮 liàng]] - brightness, clarity
[[农 nóng]] - agriculture
[[受 shòu]] - to receive, to accept
