About
The character 队, traditional form 隊, combines the radical 阝 (fù), meaning mound or hill, with the simplified component 人 (rén, person), which replaced the traditional phonetic element 㒸 (suì). Its earliest recorded sense meant to fall or descend from an elevated place, a meaning that later shifted to a different character. After this semantic change, 队 came to signify organized human groupings. It now primarily refers to a military unit, a sports team, a squad, or any structured line or queue.
