Fire

Radical 86 , meaning “ fire ”, is one of 34 of the 214 traditional radicals in Chinese writing that are written with four strokes. With 154 character combinations in Mathews' Chinese-English Dictionary, there are very many characters that can be found under this radical in the lexicon.

Radical 86 is in the direct vicinity of radical 85水 (= water), with which it also has visual similarities.

The character developed from the pictorial representation of a fire blazing upwards, the writing variant with the four dots 灬 (always at the bottom), however, from the ashes that remain from the fire.

One of the many character combinations of the character 灬 with eight more lines is the negation 無 , which in turn can be substituted with 无, actually radical 71 , as a short symbol.
