Unicode Version 17.0
廸
U+5EF8 "廸" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a rarely used Chinese character meaning "to advance" or "to follow a path," and it is considered a variant form of the more common character 迪. It belongs to the Kangxi Radical 162, 辵 or 辶, which signifies walking or motion, and its internal component 由 adds the meaning of "reason" or "cause," together conveying the idea of progressing along a logical course. In modern usage, this particular glyph is less frequent than its counterpart 迪, though it retains its place in the Unicode standard for compatibility with historical or calligraphic texts.
