About
述 combines the movement radical 辶 with the phonetic component 术, which often denotes a skill or method. Its original sense of following a path evolved from the physical act of moving along a track to the abstract act of following a sequence in speech or writing. Thus, the character came to mean narrating, stating, or recounting information in an orderly manner, without fabricating new content.
