This pattern radiates outward like the spokes of a wheel.
Tips
usage
Rarely used as a standalone character today — almost always part of a compound. Most useful: 辐射 (fúshè, 'radiation'), 辐条 (fútiáo, 'spoke'), 辐辏 (fúcòu, 'converging like wheel spokes — all roads lead to one center').
memory
Radical 车 (vehicle) on the left = clue that this is something to do with wheels and carts. The phonetic 畐 'fù' on the right gives the modern reading fú.
