About
The character 赆, whose traditional form is 贐, is structured with the semantic radical 貝, denoting currency or valuables, and the component 盡 which functions phonetically and may convey a sense of finality or thoroughness, later simplified to 尽. Etymologically, this character has been associated with the provision of gifts or money at parting, specifically referring to farewell presents or travel expenses bestowed upon someone's departure, a meaning that has been maintained in its application over time.
