"The Way overtakes" (Fanqie: 田 + 綟 [tié]. The Chuci says: 'Overtaking the swift wind in coolness'; this is it. He Xiu's commentary on the Gongyang zhuan says: 'To surpass.' Du's commentary on the Zuozhuan says: 'To rush forward suddenly.' The Shuowen jiezi says: 'Chariots passing each other.' It derives from the chariot radical with an abbreviated 失 as phonetic).
