The Shuōwén Seal form of 夂(􀻗) zhǐ is said to depict a 人(􁕎) ‘person’, with a line ㇏(􀠡􂍄􁾒􀠠及) jí ‘catching’ the two legs, indicating impediment, or the trail of 所致 past/causal events, ‘something holding him back (seeing him off)’. But in very old graphs the shape is connected with 止(􀑥) zhǐ ‘foot’ inverted (cf. 各); 夂 and 止 are both zhǐ, not homophones in SBGY, but similar.

Older graphs associated with 夂 are connected with 止(􀑥) zhǐ ‘foot’ inverted (cf. 各); 夂 and 止 are both zhǐ (not homophones in SBGY, but similar).
 
夂 zhǐ is not used in words beside the radical 34 name (夂部), but the shape 夂 is a common component, associated not only with 夂(􀻗) zhǐ, but also with 夊(􀺧) suī ‘walk slowly’ (dragging the feet, in straw sandals, or dancing shoes), and also with 攵(􀢌攴) pū ‘beat’.

The characters 夊(􀺧) suī and 夂(􀻗) zhǐ are distinct in Shuōwén (and are distinct radicals). In later dictionaries organized by the traditional 214 Kangxi (KX) radicals they are also distinct radicals. The 35th radical 夊(􀺧) suī is distinguished from the 34th radical 夂(􀻗) zhǐ, although they are generally both written 夂 today, especially when used as a component. In general, when 夂 occurs at the top of a character, it is assigned to radical 34 (夂 zhǐ); but at the bottom, it is assigned to radical 35 (夊 suī). Compare 攵(􀢌攴) pū ‘beat’ (KX radical 66) which has four strokes (and typically occurs on the right), but may be abbreviated to a shape like 夂 with only three strokes when used as a character component.
