## Chinese
### Glyph origin

Historical forms of the character 進 :
| Shang | Western Zhou | Shuowen Jiezi (compiled in Han) | Liushutong (compiled in Ming) |
| Oracle bone script | Bronze inscriptions | Small seal script | Transcribed ancient scripts |
| | Old Chinese |
| 璡 | *ʔslin, *ʔslins |
| 進 | *ʔslins |
Ideogrammic compound (會意／会意) : 辵 (“walk”) + 隹 (“short-tail bird”). A bird can only walk forward not backward, hence implying "forward". Shuowen Jiezi interprets it as Phono-semantic compound (形聲／形声, OC *ʔslins) : semantic 辵 + abbreviated phonetic 閵 (OC *rins).

### Etymology

Unknown (Schuessler, 2007). Note similarities to Burmese ဆန်း (hcan:, “to be new; to begin a new year or season”).
