The story of 夆

meet

夆 is composed of 夊(walk slowly) and 丰(luxuriant). 夊 is the picture of a foot, while 丰 means weed, so 夆 depicts the tiptoe touching the weed, means meeting, but such word has been replaced by 逢, now we seldom use it. In addition, border is desolate and the weed grows bushy, so 夆 also has the meaning of edge or brink, but such meaning has been replaced by 鋒.
