About
The word 逾越 is formed by combining the characters 逾 and 越, both meaning to exceed or cross over. 逾 is composed of the radical 辶 (walk) indicating movement and the component 俞 primarily denoting sound, while 越 consists of the radical 走 (run) suggesting motion and the component 戉 also for sound. Together, they create a compound word where each character reinforces the other to convey the action of surpassing or transgressing, such as going beyond limits or rules.
