What 飈 means
It means a whirlwind or violent wind. The Han-period Shuowen Jiezi defines 飆 as 扶搖風, a rising, whirling wind: the family was made to name that blast, then extended to anything forceful or fast. 飈 is its alternate spelling.
That is why 飈 history is family history. As of 2026-09-08, no checked source gives an earlier inscription using 飈 itself, so treat the Han-period dictionary entry as the firm starting point, not the day this exact shape was brushed.
Write it with wind plus rushing motion: 飆 pairs 風 with 猋, while related spellings such as 飇, 飊, 颮, and 颷 swap the pieces without changing the gale underneath.
