彳和亍

The commonly accepted meanings of the characters 彳and亍are “small steps” and “stop walking” respectively. Another translation fro 彳is to “step forward with left foot” and 亍is “step forward with right foot”. These two characters are seldom used in modern Chinese. The combination of these two characters forms a new character 行. This character means “to walk”.
