About
The character 竣, conveying the meaning of completion, is structurally composed of the radical 立, denoting standing, and the component 夋, which historically functioned as a phonetic element while also contributing semantic notions of gradual or respectful movement. This combination originally suggested a semantic shift from action to stillness, thereby embodying the idea of concluding an activity. Over time, its application narrowed from broader connotations of cessation to specifically indicate the finishing of tasks, particularly in contexts like construction or projects, while retaining its core conceptual link to achieving an end state. The character's form has remained consistent, with its components continuing to reflect this etymological foundation.
