About
The character "遗", derived from its traditional form "遺", is composed of the radical "辶" indicating movement and the component "貴" serving as a phonetic element, with its original meaning pertaining to losing or leaving behind. Over time, its semantic scope extended to encompass bequeathing property, omitting information, and referring to what is left behind, such as a legacy or remains, while the simplified form "遗" retains the radical "辶" and substitutes "貴" with the simplified "贵", maintaining the character's phonetic structure.
