What 掲 means
It means raise, display, or publish. The word around it chooses the sense.
As of 2026, its traceable ancestor 揭 is explained in the Shuowen Jiezi, an early Chinese character dictionary, as “raise high.” The hand part fits that physical action. Later use extends it to lifting covers and revealing information, and Japanese 掲 carries that path into aims, notices, and published text.
Plain Japanese vocabulary in compounds.
Do not treat a lone 掲 as a mood reaction.
