The character 様 is often used to express respect when addressing someone (as in "お客様" or "田中様"). Its other meanings include “manner,” “form,” or “appearance,” which are seen in words like 様子 and 模様. The radical 木 hints at its connection to forms and structures, possibly originating from symbolic figures or shapes.
