The two elements of Kanji 作 : key, 亻 ninben and basic phonetic 乍 (SAKU)

List of Kanji in common use belonging to the key 人, person.
The Sino-Japanese reading of its basic primitive has been preserved.
Suggested mnemonic to link the phonetic and the key to the - underlined - meaning(s)- of the Kanji:
"means "a person hidden from view, to complete a difficult piece of work, and the (crafts)man who makes, produces... By extension, the result of his work: piece, masterpiece, harvest."
In the Software or the application - but not on this image obviously-, by clicking on a Kanji of blue color involving a link, one can navigate to see the screen of another Kanji of the family with the same key or the same phonetic primitive.
One can also use the bar or button of Search to see a Kanji which is not a part of these two families.
