人(亻) person（单人旁/单立人 dānrénpáng/dānlìrén）
【PINYIN】[rén]
【TRANSLATION】man; people; mankind; someone else
【FORMATION】象形，像侧面站立的人形
【Coinage】Pictograph. A side standing figure
【Motivation】单人旁“亻”的位置在汉字的左侧，“亻”是由“人”字演变而来的（另外还有“人”部）。“亻”部的字很多，大多与人或人的活动有关。
Same as "人". While traditional dictionaries classify this form as a special case of the "man", modern dictionaries make it a separate component. It does not occur by itself as a character; it only occurs in combination with other components, or with sound-components, as a part of characters. Sometimes called "side-man".
