old variant of 達|达[dá]

Etymology

About

The character 迏 is a simplified form of the traditional variant 逹, which itself is an alternate form of the more common character 達. In its traditional form 逹, the structure consists of the movement radical 辶 combined with the component 幸, which in this context likely functions as a phonetic element rather than carrying its independent meaning of "fortune". The core etymological meaning relates to the concept of reaching or arriving at a place. Over time, this meaning expanded from the physical act of arrival to include more abstract notions of attaining a goal, achieving understanding, or successfully expressing something, as seen in the semantic field of its standard counterpart 達. The simplified form 迏 replaces the 幸 component with 大, representing a graphic simplification primarily focused on reducing stroke count.
