A given character may represent a free word in one or more of its meanings but a bound morpheme in other meanings. E.g. <strong>qi\u01ceng<\/strong> \u62a2 is a bound form meaning &#8216;take emergency measures&#8217; in <strong>qi\u01cengsh\u00f2u<\/strong> \u62a2\u6536 but a free form as a verb meaning &#8216;pillage&#8217;.)<\/p>\n<p>In addition to these meaningful bound forms, which we define and illustrate with one or more examples, there are many characters which have no meaning of their own but simply represent a syllabic sound. E.g. <sup>8<\/sup><strong>p\u00fa<\/strong> \u8461 and <sup>6<\/sup><strong>t\u00e1o<\/strong> \u8404 in <strong>p\u00fatao<\/strong> \u8461\u8404 &#8216;grapes&#8217;.
