About
The character "碾" structurally combines the radical "石", indicating stone, with the component "展", which primarily provides phonetic guidance but also loosely implies an unfolding or spreading action, etymologically pointing to the use of stone rollers for grinding or flattening substances. Historically, this character denoted the function of heavy stone implements used in milling grains or compressing surfaces, with its meaning consistently centered on the application of crushing pressure through a rolling motion. Over time, while its core sense has remained stable, it has occasionally broadened to encompass metaphorical uses, such as describing the experience of being overwhelmed or figuratively crushed, yet without significant deviation from its original association with stone and mechanical force.
