About
The character "桨" is the simplified form of the traditional character "槳". In the traditional form, the structure combines the phonetic component "將" with the semantic component "木", indicating a wooden object. The simplified form "桨" retains the "木" component but replaces "將" with the top part "", which is a simplified phonetic element derived from "將". Etymologically, the character has consistently referred to a wooden oar or paddle used for propelling boats.
