運送
うんそう · unsou · JLPT N1 · noun
transportation
📦 運 = carry + 送 = send, so carry-and-send = shipping; freight
運 (un) means carry or transport, and 送 (sou) means send or deliver. Together they name the moving of goods from one place to another.
送 — 辶 (walk) + 关 (simplified from 灷, fire/torch)
Originally depicted hands holding a torch to escort someone on a journey, combined with the 'walk' radical 辶. The right side 关 is a simplification of an older form showing fire being carried. The core meaning evolved from 'escort/see off' to the broader sense of 'send' or 'give as a gift.'
