About

迸 (bèng) is a phono-semantic compound describing a sudden, forceful outward motion, like bursting, gushing, or scattering. Its structure features the movement radical 辶 (chuò), which associates it with physical motion or traveling. The phonetic component 并 (bìng) indicates pronunciation, replacing the older element 幷 from the traditional form 逬. The character captures explosive or uncontrolled movement, as in water spurting from a breach, sparks flying from a fire, or a crowd dispersing abruptly.
