Memory story · made up to help you remember
“Standing on the side! When the "stand" radical moves to the left, it brings the energy of competition, limits, and finality. Imagine a row of people standing at a starting line or at the very edge of a cliff. It represents the boundary where one thing ends and another begins, and the effort required to "stand" against an opponent.”
Where it sits in a kanji
Indicates a position, an end/edge, a boundary, competition (two standing together), or the act of reaching a final state or limit.
