Meanings and usage

verb: to send; to dispatch, school of thought; faction
派

派 has many hard-to-disambiguate senses under the same reading (verb 'to send/dispatch', noun 'faction/style/tributary', classifier for scenes or groups); the verb sense was chosen as primary but usage is highly context-dependent.
