four
四 represents the number four, a basic numeral with no extended abstract meanings.
四 originally depicted a different shape, possibly related to breath or division, but was borrowed early as the numeral four. The modern form is a stylized simplification.
Picture a closed fist with four fingers curled inside a box shape: the enclosure 囗 holds the four strokes of 儿, making four.
For シ, imagine the number four written on a sheet of paper: sheet -> シ, and the four is right there.
