Today's words and drawing books work with both forms in separate Radikal departments. The 衣 -form itself can in turn appear in two variants, namely as a whole, such as in 袈裟 (= the rag robe of Buddhist monks) or in 裁 (= cut fabric). In the second variant, 衣 appears in a horizontally divided form, with another component between its parts as in 裹 (= connect). The inserted fruit 果 serves as a sound carrier. A 衣 divided in this way occurs in many characters, none of which can be looked up under the radical 亠, such as wie (= disappear).

As a bearer of meaning, 衣 puts his characters in the meaning field “clothing” such as 裁 (= tailor), 袭 (= surprise attack, but original meaning: put on clothes to a dead person), 衷 (= inner feelings, heart, but originally: close to Lingerie lying on the body), 衰 (= decline, originally: rainwear made of grass), 裘 (= fur coat). The Laut in 铱 (= element iridium ), 依 (= to rely on) and 裔 (= descendant, in: 华裔 = overseas Chinese) acts as a sound carrier.
