About
The character "送" originates from a structural composition that integrates the radical "辶", indicating movement, with the component "关", which historically provided both phonetic and semantic contributions to form the concept of sending or escorting. Initially denoting the specific act of accompanying someone on their departure, its meaning broadened over time to encompass the delivery of objects, the offering of gifts, and the general notion of conveyance away from a source. Its form has remained largely consistent, with the interplay between its components continuously reflecting the core idea of transitive motion, while the semantic expansion from personal farewells to impersonal transfers illustrates adaptive shifts in its application within the language.
