About
The character "逝" is structured with the walk radical "辶" combined with the component "折", which historically served a phonetic role while also implying a sense of breaking or parting. Its etymology points to an original meaning of going away or passing by, often applied to the movement of water or the passage of time. Over time, the character's usage shifted to more specifically convey the concept of passing away or death, though it continues to carry its earlier connotations of departure in certain literary and compound contexts.
