About this kanji
The kanji 「呈」 (pronounced テイ) primarily means to display or present something. It’s most often used in noun compounds rather than as a standalone verb. For example, 贈呈 (ぞうてい) refers to the presentation of a gift or prize, while 進呈 (しんてい) also means to present something, often in a formal context. Another useful compound is 露呈 (ろてい), which means exposure, typically in a more negative or revealing sense. It's important to note that this kanji carries a sense of formality, so you'll often see it used in official speeches or ceremonies.
Example sentences
作品を呈示する機会を得た。
I had the opportunity to present my work.
