The Shuōwén Seal form of 连/連() lián ‘rickshaw/handcart’ combines 车/車 (chē) ‘cart’, and 辶(辵 chuò) ‘go’; later wr. 辇/輦() niǎn/liǎn (輦車).
Note: Today 连/連 lián ‘join/link/connect’ (连属), and the old sense 连/連() lián ‘rickshaw/handcart’ (cart drawn by humans, rather than by draft animals) has been lost; cf. 辇 ‘sedan chair; imperial capital’ (步辇).
Compare: 联/聯(䏈) lián ‘link’, which is the old wr. of 连/連 lián ‘link’.
Compare: 輟() chuò (DYC).
