树(樹) shù tree in Mandarin Chinese
Definition[edit | edit source]
Radical is the pictograph 木 mù “tree.” This radical is referred to colloquially as 木字旁 mùzìpáng “side made up of the character 木.” Note that when 木 is written at the left of a character as a radical, its last stroke is shortened so that it doesn’t collide with the component to its right. Contrast simplified 树 with simplified 对 duì.
