EtymologyEdit

走
Oracle bone script	Bronze inscriptions	Large seal script	Small seal script

Ideogrammic compound (會意): 夭 (“young, running man”) + 止 (“foot”) – a running man with foot underneath. Top component (夭) simplified to 土, while bottom component drawn rather as 疋, without the top stroke.

As with 圭, there are two separate vertical strokes, not a single one.
