About
The traditional form 擊 is a phono-semantic compound with 手 (hand) at the bottom as the semantic component, indicating a striking action, and 毄 as the phonetic component above. The simplified form 击 derives from a cursive abbreviation, its structure now a vertical line crossing a horizontal box, resembling an altered container or vehicle component, which greatly reduces the stroke count. The core meaning is to hit, strike, attack, or beat. This applies to contexts from physical combat and striking objects to more abstract notions of attacking or countering an opponent in competition.
