Character Story & Explanation
Imagine a bustling market in Chengdu, where a vendor catches a thief trying to steal fruit. The vendor raises a wooden stick and 抶 (chì) the thief on the arm—a quick, sharp beating to deter the crime. This rare character, composed of 扌(hand) and 失(lose), vividly depicts the act of striking someone who has lost their way.
