About
The character "逃", representing the concept of escape or flight, is constructed from the movement radical ⻌ paired with the component "兆", which serves predominantly as a phonetic element while possibly evoking an associative sense of departing from a portent or marked situation. Etymologically, it has long denoted the physical act of fleeing or withdrawing from danger, capture, or obligation, as seen in early literary uses where it often described evading responsibilities or avoiding pursuit. Throughout its historical usage, the character's fundamental meaning has persisted, though its application has gradually expanded to include more abstract notions of avoidance, such as eluding abstract threats or disengaging from undesirable circumstances, without any substantial modification to its structural form.
