The Chinese character 感 (gǎn) means "to feel" or "to be moved". It is composed of two parts: the radical 心 (xīn), which means "heart", and the phonetic component 感 (gǎn), which is a pictograph of a person with their hands raised in supplication. The character 动 (dòng) means "to move" or "to be moved". It is composed of two parts: the radical 足 (zú), which means "foot", and the phonetic component 动 (dòng), which is a pictograph of a person walking. The word 感动 (gǎndòng) is a compound of these two characters, and it means "to be moved" or "to be touched". It can be used to describe a variety of emotions, including happiness, sadness, anger, and fear.
