SHOU
meaning: manifest, openly acknowledge 表彰状 == hyoushoujou == (noun) testimonial, certificate of commendation |

Right radical is 'delicate hairs', here meaning 'attractive decoration'. Left radical is 'badge' (章), meaning 'attractive pattern' here. This character originally meant 'attractive decorative pattern'. It came to mean 'display something attractive', and eventually meanings related to 'display' in general. Henshall suggests as a mnemonic: 'Open acknowledge badge has three hairs on it.' Info from Taka
