About
The character 飙 denotes a whirlwind, violent storm, or movement with extreme speed and ferocity. It is a phono-semantic compound: the semantic radical 风 (wind) places it within meteorological phenomena, while the phonetic component 猋, depicting three running dogs, provides the pronunciation 'biāo'. Its traditional form 飆 pairs the same phonetic element with the unsimplified wind radical 風. The image of rapidly running dogs combined with wind effectively conveys the sense of a swift, chaotic, and powerful gale, a meaning that extends to sudden gusts or rapid motion.
