"Hot" Kanji's (Why are there different ones?)

    Well the kanji isn't just called hot in English but the three different kanji's can define as hot in weather, something hot or something heavy or thick. So kanji can help people know weather it means weather hot, something thick, or somethings hot by reading. I know it is confusing at first but you will eventually get used to it. (This was really hard to explain...sorry if it doesn't make sense...dm me or comment for extra help)

厚い: Thick//heavy
このほんは厚いです。
kono hon wa atsui desu.
This book is heavy/thick.

熱い: Hot (as in thing)
火 はとても熱いです。
hi(you learned this in Elements) wa totemo atsui desu.
Fire is very hot.

暑い: hot (Weather etc.)
なつはとても暑いです。
natsu wa totemo atsui desu.
Summer is very hot.

2 Colds?!

Just like"Hot" Cold is technically the same. One means cold as in the weather and the other one is something cold.

寒い (samui): Weather etc.
そとは寒いです。
soto wa samui desu.
It is cold outside

冷たい (tsumetai): something cold
こおりはとてもつめたいです。
koori wa totemo tsumetai desu
Ice is very cold.
