Radicals
|
辶
|
movement | (The radical shinnyuu stands for movement and thus has the same meaning as the very similar radical ennyou 廴) |
|
屰
|
opposite | (chinese only: (see the difference vs. barracks/camp: 屯)) |
|
肉
|
body part, meat | (This radical is at the left side of a character and typically drawn as: 月, which looks equal to: "moon, month 月" but still has the meaning body-part.) |
Tip: Go to the radicals that are contained in this character and learn all the characters with this radical systematically!
