About
The character "瘸" has historically denoted lameness or a crippled condition, with its etymology centered on the concept of a leg ailment. Its structure combines the sickness radical "疒" with a phonetic component that originally provided a pronunciation cue, though the modern reading qué has diverged from that earlier phonetic value. This component is itself composed of "加" positioned above "肉", a configuration that may suggest an accumulated or compounded bodily affliction. Throughout its usage, the meaning of "瘸" has remained specifically tied to physical lameness, showing little variation or expansion into broader semantic fields.
