kun'yomi |
Compound of 火 (ho, “fire”) + 退く (soku, “to push away, to make distant”).[1]
The kun'yomi for 火 is usually hi, but it can appear as ho or fu, particularly in older compounds.
The soku changes to soke due to conjugation of the verb. Grammatically, the 連用形 (ren'yōkei, “continuative or stem form”) of soke indicates the transitive.[1]
Use of this kanji 燹 is rare, and is an example of jukujikun. The more common spelling is 火退.
