Etymology & Components

The Chinese character 逛 (guàng) is composed of two parts: the radical 辶 (chuò), which indicates movement, and the phonetic component 逛 (guàng), which is a simplified form of the character 逛 (guàng), meaning "to walk around". The original meaning of 逛 was "to walk", but over time it has come to mean "to stroll", "to wander", or "to go shopping". The character 逛 is often used in combination with other characters to form compound words, such as 逛街 (guàngjiē), meaning "to go shopping", and 逛公园 (guàng gōngyuán), meaning "to visit a park".
