About
伐 is an ideogrammatic compound combining the human radical 亻 on the left with 戈 (a halberd) on the right, visually depicting a person wielding a weapon. This structure gives it the primary meanings of attacking or launching a military campaign. The character also extends to the physical act of felling trees and, by abstraction, to the sense of bragging about one’s accomplishments.
