Ideographic description

⿺辶井The sequence reads left to right and describes how the parts are arranged.

  • 辶meaning partno entry yetThe walking radical: a step 彳 over a foot 止.
  • 井shape partno entry yetA simplification shorthand. The traditional 進 has 隹, a short-tailed bird — a bird can hop forward but not back, which is the old reading of the character.

Mnemonic

Walking 辶 with 井 standing in for the bird of the traditional 進. Beginners meet it mostly in the direction complements, where the speaker’s own position decides the word: 进来 come in (I am inside) and 进去 go in (I am outside). Beyond that: 进步 to make progress, 进口 an import or an entrance.
