About
The character "努" is structured with the semantic component 力, indicating strength or effort, and the phonetic component 奴, which provides a sound cue. Its etymology centers on the concept of exerting physical force, and over time its meaning extended to encompass diligent striving, as seen in the compound 努力. The character also developed a specific application in 努嘴, referring to the act of pouting, illustrating a semantic shift from general physical exertion to include a focused facial expression of effort.
