Nabla symbol

The nabla is a triangular symbol resembling an inverted Greek delta: or ∇. The name comes, by reason of the symbol's shape, from the Hellenistic Greek word νάβλα for a Phoenician harp, and was suggested by the encyclopedist William Robertson Smith to Peter Guthrie Tait in correspondence. The nabla symbol is available in standard HTML as ∇ and in LaTeX as abla. In Unicode, it is the character at code point U+2207, or 8711 in decimal notation, in the Mathematical Operators block. It is also called del. (Wikipedia).

The Story of Chinese Character : 尒

尒 is the simplified form of爾, which depicts an arrow. Arrow look like a sign of indicating a direction, so尒 is used to represent person being addressed(you), now we use你 instead.
