About
The character 翔 is structured as a phono-semantic compound, with 羽 as the semantic component indicating feathers or wings and 羊 as the phonetic component guiding its pronunciation. Originally, this character specifically described the gliding motion of birds in flight. Over time, its meaning broadened to encompass general soaring and, in derived uses such as in the term 翔实, it adopted the additional sense of being detailed or accurate. The composition of the character, built from these two elements, has not varied in its standard written form.
