About
The character 辵 is a radical composed of 彳 (a street) and 止 (a foot), clearly depicting a foot in motion along a road, and it represents walking and movement. The full form is almost never used independently; instead, it is the source of the common radical 辶. As a semantic component, 辶 appears in a large number of characters that convey motion, transportation, speed, or travel, forming a foundational marker for physical displacement.
