About
The character "藤" is etymologically constructed from the grass radical, denoting its botanical category, combined with the component "滕" which functions phonetically while also conveying an associative sense of upward growth or climbing, consistent with the nature of vines. Its early usage specifically indicated wisteria, but over time the term's application extended to encompass a wider range of climbing plants and, by metaphorical extension, to objects fashioned from their flexible stems, such as rattanware. This semantic broadening occurred alongside a stability in the character's graphical form, which has preserved its traditional structure without substantive alteration.
