About
The character "撰" is structured with the hand radical "扌" on the left and the component "巽" on the right, where "巽" primarily functions as a phonetic element but also carries connotations of handling or arrangement. Etymologically, its earliest uses involved concrete actions such as holding, gathering, or selecting items, which over time extended into the realm of organizing and composing written works. This evolution in meaning shifted from physical manipulation to the intellectual activity of authoring texts, including writing, editing, and compiling, thereby cementing its association with deliberate literary production and scholarly composition.
