(literary) middle way; proper action; appropriate conduct
- 子曰：「不得中行而與之，必也狂狷乎！」 [Classical Chinese, trad.]
  子曰：「不得中行而与之，必也狂狷乎！」 [Classical Chinese, simp.]
  From: The Analects of Confucius, c. 475 – 221 BCE, translated based on James Legge's version
  Zǐ yuē: “Bùdé zhōngxíng ér yǔ zhī, bì yě kuángjuàn hū!” [Pinyin]
  The Master said, "Since I cannot get men pursuing the due medium, to whom I might communicate my instructions, I must find the ardent and the cautiously-decided."

Etymology 2

Originally, a 氏 (shì, “hereditary clan; house”) created in the state of Jin (晉), taking the name from the "Central Column" — 中 (zhōng)行 (háng) — of the Jin armies.

晉侯作三行以禦狄，荀林父將中行，屠擊將右行，先蔑將左行。 [Classical Chinese, trad.]

晋侯作三行以御狄，荀林父将中行，屠击将右行，先蔑将左行。 [Classical Chinese, simp.]

From: Commentary of Zuo, c. 4^th century BCE

Jìnhóu zuò sān háng yǐ yù Dí, Xún Línfǔ jiàng zhōng háng, Tú Jī jiàng yòu háng, Xiān Miè jiàng zuǒ háng. [Pinyin]

The Marquis of Jin established the Three Columns in order to defend against the Di. Xun Linfu, Tu Ji, and Xian Mie commanded the Central, Right, and Left columns respectively.

According to Kong Yingda's annotations to the Zuozhuan, the Middle Chinese fanqie of 行 in this context was 戶郎反 (reconstructed: /*ɦɑŋ/, /*ɣɑŋ/ > Mandarin háng).
