Radical 144 meaning “ go , journey ” is one of the 29 of the 214 traditional radicals in Chinese writing that are written with six strokes.
With 14 character combinations in Mathews' Chinese-English Dictionary, there are relatively few characters that can be found under this radical in the lexicon.
See radical 60彳 = step; Radical 7二 with radical 6亅 (or radical 1一 and 丁) results in the right part 亍 = tripple.
One step forward with the left foot, a second with the right - this indicates the sign as it is now in use. It consists of two parts placed side by side, 彳 and 亍 ; for character combinations, the additional lines are always placed between these two parts. The original pictogram shows a street crossing , hence the double meaning: once "walk" - the steps on intersecting streets -, then the "shop", the "trade" - the place where goods are bought and sold.
