Questions about 射
How is 射 used in a sentence?
This page shows 16 sentences using 射 (shè, "Shoots (emit - radiate - send out)"), each with pinyin, an English translation and audio. Every one of them was written by hand for this site.

Why do some sentences show 射 inside a longer word?
Because that is where a single character usually lives. Seeing 射 inside the words it builds is how the character stops being an isolated symbol and starts being something you can read.
