Meaning & History
Sino-Japanese reading of kanji like 翠 meaning "green," 粋 meaning "chic, smart, stylish, refined," 穂 meaning "ear/head (of plant); point, tip," 彗, part of 彗星 (suisei) meaning "comet," and 遂 meaning "accomplishment," among others, also written as 好, stemming from 好き (suki) meaning "(well-)liked, favourite."
These single kanji, alongside those that can be (partially) read as su, like 澄 meaning "lucidity, transparency" or 朱 meaning "vermilion," can be suffixed with an i kanji, such as 衣 meaning "clothing" or 依 meaning "reliance, dependence."
