送

sòng

to send; to deliver; to transmit

to give (as a present); to see (sb) off; to accompany; to go along with

movement (辶) + closing (关) = send off, deliver

关 originally depicted hands closing a door or gate — the moment of parting. Paired with the movement radical, the whole character captures walking someone to the threshold and seeing them off.
