The Chinese character 趟 (tàng) is composed of two parts: the radical 氵(water) and the phonetic component 宕 (dàng). The radical 氵indicates that the character is related to water, while the phonetic component 宕 provides a clue to its pronunciation.The original meaning of 趟 is "to wade through water". This meaning is still used today, as in the phrase 趟水过河 (tàng shuǐ guò hé), which means "to wade across a river". However, 趟 has also developed a number of other meanings, including "to travel", "to visit", and "to experience".For example, the phrase 走一趟 (zǒu yī tàng) means "to take a trip", while the phrase 去一趟 (qù yī tàng) means "to go on a visit". The phrase 经历一趟 (jīnglì yī tàng) means "to experience something".趟 can also be used as a measure word. For example, the phrase 一趟车 (yī tàng chē) means "one trip by car", while the phrase 一趟水 (yī tàng shuǐ) means "one wade through water".The character 趟 is a versatile character with a rich history. It is a useful character to know for HSK learners, as it can be used in a variety of contexts.
