About
The character "葬" originates from an illustrative conception of interment, combining the grass radical with the symbol for death and an element suggesting hands to form a composite image of placing the deceased beneath vegetation and earth. Its structural configuration in the traditional character has remained consistent, with these components collectively reinforcing the notion of burial. The meaning has steadfastly denoted funeral practices and the act of laying to rest, maintaining this primary association without significant semantic shift across its historical usage.
