The Shuōwén Seal form of 行 xíng ‘step/walk/go’ is said to combine ​彳 chì (the moving/mobile leg/foot, on the left), and ​亍 chù (the fixed/stationary leg/foot, on the right): the Seal form of ​彳 is the reverse of ​亍, and their combination signifies putting one foot in front of the other, stepping/walking/going; facing south, the eastern (left foot) moves first, at the start of any auspicious journey.
    Compare: ​辶/​辵 chuò ‘walk/pace/go back/forth/about, loiter/linger’, the structure of which has similar SW explanation (with ​彳 and ​止).
    Older forms associated with 行 appear to depict a crossroads, the crossing/intersection of two roads, as in ​衟/​道, ​街, ​衢, or perhaps a fork in the road, the branching of one road into two or more roads.
    行 is the 144th of the 214 radicals.
