About
够 combines the phonetic element 句 on the left with the semantic element 多, meaning "many" or "much", on the right. Historically, it often appeared in the reversed form 夠, but the current standard places the phonetic component first. The pairing of these elements conveys a sense of abundance, which aligns with its primary use as an adjective or adverb meaning "enough", "sufficient", or "adequate to meet a need".
