逖

• Adjectival: Distant, remote, far.
• Verbal (transitive): To drive away, banish, remove, or keep at a distance.

The glyph functions as either an attribute or a predicate. When used as a transitive verb, it indicates an active process of separation involving a subject and an object.

While 逖 and 遠 both translate as "distant," they are not always interchangeable:

• 遠 (yuǎn) typically describes a state of being far away; it is often neutral, expansive, or nostalgic.
• 逖 (tì) frequently carries a connotation of removal or exclusion, suggesting a gap that has been created or maintained. In official or courtly contexts, this often implies an act of authority, such as banishment.
