hand
手 centers on the hand as a body part and its use in action, grasping, or handling things.
手 is a pictograph of a hand with fingers and a wrist. The modern form retains the basic hand shape with four strokes.
The top stroke is the wrist, the two horizontal strokes are the fingers, and the vertical stroke is the palm. Together they form a hand.
For シュ, imagine a shoe held in your hand: shoe -> シュ, and your hand is ready to put it on.
