How to use 晚报
晚报 means a newspaper that comes out in the afternoon or evening, and it often appears in paper names like 北京晚报 (Běijīng Wǎnbào, Beijing Evening News). Example: 我爸爸每天看晚报。(Wǒ bàba měitiān kàn wǎnbào.) My dad reads the evening paper every day.
晚报 is just 晚 (wǎn, evening) plus 报 (bào, report or newspaper), so it is literally the evening paper. Picture the sun 日 on the left of 晚 setting while you pick up the day's news.
Common mistake: Learners sometimes write 晚 as 晓 or 免 alone. The left side of 晚 is 日 and the right side is 免, so check both parts. Also keep the tones as third then fourth, wǎnbào, not wánbào.
