Day 8: 勝 (しょう、か「つ」)

I’ve known two parts of 勝 for a while. The first radical is 月. It means month. The one underneath 力 means strength. I've still yet to learn the radical that sits on top of strength. These three radicals together in this specific order means a flesh cut by the powerful. The おん reading is shou and the くん reading is ka[tsu] and masa[ru].
