The character 贝 (bèi) specifically refers to "shell" or "cowrie shell," which has historically been used as currency in ancient China. There are a few other Chinese characters that are similar in meaning or pronunciation, though they may not directly translate to "shell."
1. 壳 (ké) - This character means "shell" or "husk." It is often used to refer to the outer covering of various objects, such as nuts or eggs. The pronunciation is different from 贝 (bèi).
2. 贝类 (bèi lèi) - This term means "shellfish" or "mollusks." It combines 贝 (bèi) with 类 (lèi), which means "type" or "category." This word encompasses various marine animals that have shells.
