<< review queue entry 66514 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> M's definition: 形聲字中指明意義類別的部分。如「江」字左邊的「水」、「劈」字下邊的「刀」。 也稱為「形符」。 1. "significative" is an adjective; 意符 is a noun. (However, some sources use the term "signific" apparently.) 2. An 意符 isn't necessarily a radical. "Usually, the radical is also the semantic component, but that is not always the case. [...] There are also instances of radicals which play a phonetic and not a semantic role in characters ..." The radical of 翌 is 羽. It's dubious that this could be considered an 意符. 3. The 意符 does not really "indicate the meaning". As M says, it only indicates the broad semantic category (意義類別). 4. Adding 形符 (see PLC M LA K) |
