字源故事 (Origin Story)

“炬”字从“火”，表示与火相关；右部“巨”用作声旁。古代将一端点燃用以照明或传递信号的木棍称为“炬”，与火的使用关系密切。The character '炬' derives from the 'fire' radical on the left, indicating a meaning related to fire; the right part '巨' serves as the phonetic component. In ancient times, a stick lit at one end for illumination or signal transmission was called '炬', closely associated with the use of fire.
