The kanji 勅 is a phono-semantic compound. It is composed of two parts: - The left side is 束 (soku, tsuka), which originally represented a bundle or binding, and by extension, something regulated or ordered. - The right side is 刀 (katana), which means "sword" or "knife." - Together, the character signifies an imperial command that is as binding as a bundle and can be as decisive as a sword. It represents the authority of the emperor. The formation implies that the emperor's words are as binding as something that is bound together, and as powerful as a sword.
