About
The Chinese character 戳 (chuō) is primarily a verb meaning to poke, stab, puncture, or firmly apply a stamp. It is a phono-semantic compound. The right-side radical 戈 (gē), an ancient halberd, indicates the meaning relates to thrusting or piercing with a pointed instrument. The left component 翟 (dí), historically a pheasant or feathers, provides the pronunciation. Its usage covers forceful prodding actions, from poking a hole to pressing an official seal onto paper.
