Today’s first #kanji is #以, which is listed under the radical of #ひと（人）. 以 is apparently a logogram and suggests the opposite of “stopping.” There is only one official reading although I will list one of unofficial readings as well.
Meaning: 以 is usually used to indicate some kind of a boundary. See the examples.
Reading: イ、もっ*
以上（イジョウ）: …or more; beyond; the above; now that…; that’s all
以下（イカ）: … or less; below; including…; the following
以内（イナイ）: within, up to and including…
以外（イガイ）: except; excluding…
以前（イゼン）: ago, before, once
以後（イゴ）: after this, from now on
以降（イコウ）: after this, from now on
以来（イライ）: since…
以（イ）心（シン）伝（デン）心（シン）: telepathy, tacit understanding
