About
The character "栅" originally depicted a wooden fence or barrier, a meaning directly conveyed by its composition which combines the radical for wood (木) with the component 冊, which in this context represents the image of wooden tablets or slats bound together laterally. This structure logically points to an object constructed from upright wooden pieces arranged in a row, forming an enclosure or a defensive boundary. Over time, while its primary sense remained tied to man-made barricades like railings, stockades, or palisades, its application broadened to signify any similar grid or grating structure, such as that found in a cattle pen or even metaphorical barriers. The traditional form of the character is identical to this original construction and has maintained its structural integrity and core semantic field throughout its history.
