About
The character 扉, constructed from the door radical 户 and the component 非, originally specified a door leaf or a swinging gate in early usage, with 非 primarily serving a phonetic role. Its meaning later broadened from referring solely to physical door components to also encompass the cover or title page of a book, as evidenced in the compound 扉页, marking a shift from a literal entryway to a metaphorical introduction to text.
