About

蹽 is a phono-semantic compound: the foot radical 足 (zú) signals leg or foot action, while the phonetic 尞 (liáo), though containing 大 and 火, serves purely to indicate the sound. The character means to slip away quickly, flee, or make a hasty and stealthy departure, often with a colloquial tone.
