About
The character 帆 is a phono-semantic compound, with the cloth radical 巾 (jīn) on the left providing the semantic category of woven textiles, and the phonetic component 凡 (fán) on the right indicating the pronunciation. Its core meaning is a ship's sail, historically made from large sheets of sturdy cloth to catch the wind and propel a vessel. This meaning extends to represent sailing ships and the act of traveling by boat across water. The right component 凡 contributes only to the sound, not the meaning.
