About
The character 达, with its traditional form 達, structurally combines the movement radical 辵 with the phonetic component 羍, reflecting an original sense of physical arrival or passing through. Over time, its semantic range expanded beyond mere locomotion to encompass abstract forms of attainment, such as achieving purposes or realizing understanding, which is observable in compound formations like 达到 for reaching a goal and 表达 for articulating ideas. The modern iteration 达 modifies this construction by integrating the component 大, which serves a similar phonetic role while offering a streamlined graph, yet the character's fundamental linkage to concepts of movement and fulfillment has persisted throughout its linguistic development.
