About
壮 is the simplified form of 壯. It combines 士 (shì), originally a warrior, strong man, or weapon, with the phonetic component 丬, a simplification of 爿 (pán). Although 爿 itself depicts a split piece of wood or a bed, it primarily indicates the sound. The character denotes physical strength, robustness, maturity, and prime condition, particularly in male adults or large animals, and extends to magnificent, imposing scenes, structures, and ambitions.
