About
The character 符, structurally comprising the bamboo radical 竹 positioned above the component 付, originally denoted a bamboo tally split into halves for authentication or conferring authority. Its semantic field gradually extended from such physical tokens to encompass symbols and talismans, particularly in ritual contexts, while also developing the abstract sense of correspondence or agreement, as evidenced in its verbal usage meaning to match or accord.
