🎯 Some radicals are characters by themselves and they are continued to be used individually as a character, such as 日、月、水、手、等.
🎯 Some radicals are evolved from characters. Now they are placed at specific position of a character, such as 氵、耂.

1. "曰" and "日" are very similar. The radical 曰 is commonly known as "扁日旁(biǎn rì páng)", which literally means "the flat radical 日". Chinese characters with this radical are usually related to "to say, speech", etc.
