Commentary on the radical "扌" or "手"
Many of the kanji with the radical "扌" or "手" is related to names of various parts of the hand and hand movements.
"扌" is the form of the word "手" when it is radicalized to "hen".
I note that although "扌" or "手" are originally two separate radicals, they often share the same form and meaning, so they are explained together.
e.g.
打 → 扌 + 丁
The "丁" represents a nail (tools).
The two together generally mean "to strike," from the meaning of "to strike with a nail in one's hand.
押 → 扌 + 甲
The part of "甲" represents the shell of a turtle. It means "to cover".
The two together represent the meaning of "holding down" by covering an object with one's hand".
