About
The character 逊 is built upon the movement radical 辶 (chuò), which suggests action or a path, and the phonetic component 孙 (sūn), meaning grandchild. Its original sense involves yielding or stepping aside, a physical act of giving way that extends to the behavioral qualities of humility and modesty. By extension, 逊 also describes something as inferior or less than in comparison.
