About
The character 翅, meaning 'wing,' is structured with the semantic component 羽, indicating feathers or wings, and the phonetic component 支, which historically guided its pronunciation, reflecting an inherent link to avian features through the feather element. Originally denoting the wings of birds, its meaning gradually extended to include the wings of insects and other flying animals, as well as analogous appendages like fins or certain mechanical parts that mimic wing functions. Over time, the term also acquired metaphorical uses, describing anything that provides lift or support, while its written form has maintained consistency without notable alteration in its compositional layout.
