師

Today’s #kanji is #師. It is listed under the radical of #はば(巾) but its semantic element is the left-hand side (ノ and 㠯) and 帀 is the phonetic element, though 師 and 帀 don’t share a sound in Japanese.

Meaning: a teacher, a specialist
Reading: シ

~に師事(ジ)する: vi. to study under ~, to become ~’s pupil
