見送る(みおくる) | see off ★★★☆☆ 見 (look) + 送 (send) = 見送る (see off) to see a friend off - like as far as the train station.
送り仮名(おくりがな) | okurigana ★☆☆☆☆ 送 (send) + 仮 (provisional) + 名 (name, famous) = 送り仮名 (okurigana) these are the hiragana letters dangling from the end of kanji, like the "べる" in 食べる or the "り" in 送り仮名。 okurigana are useful because they cue you to pronounce the kanji using KUN yomi, rather than ON.
