Its meaning is often associated with the idea of "to go forward" or "to advance," and it may also carry connotations of "front" or "before" in certain compound contexts. This character belongs to the Kangxi radical 9, "人" (human), and contains 10 strokes, reflecting its structure as a left-right composition.
