-From 卂 xùn ‘fly quickly’ and 辶(辵 chuò) ‘go’. 卂 is a picture of a flying bird, like 飞(飛 fēi). 迅 is cognate with 卂.
+The Shuōwén Seal form of 迅(􀒮) xùn ‘(fly) quickly; quick’ combines 辶(辵 chuò) ‘go’, and 卂(􂂍) xùn ‘fly quickly’ (phonosemantic); formerly wr. 卂, 奞(􀧬).
-	Compare 讯 xùn and 汛 xùn, where 卂 is phonetic.
+	Note: 辶 was added to specify the abstract motion ‘quick/quickly’, vs. original 卂 ‘fly quickly’.
+	Compare: 奞(􀧬) xùn ‘spread/flap the wings and take off, fly’.
+	Compare: 讯 xùn, 汛 xùn.
