I'd need some context to understand it.
The meanings for the Kanji are sort of like the raw meaning for it. When it is used in vocabulary and combined with other characters the meaning is refined and you get something more precise and meaningful (though occasionally a completely different meaning). That's probably the simplest way I can think to describe it.
