Etymology
About
骏 is a phono-semantic compound. Its semantic radical 马 (traditionally 馬) on the left indicates the meaning is related to horses, while the right side provides the phonetic component. The character specifically describes the rapid galloping of a horse, conveying a sense of swift, agile movement. This strong association with speed is why it’s often used in literature to depict rapid progress, the swift passage of time, or horses running together.
