steep
陀 centers on steepness, describing a sharply inclined slope or a slanting, diagonal orientation.
陀 combines ⻖ (mound, hill) with 它, which likely contributes the sound. The hill radical suggests a steep or sloping terrain.
The left side ⻖ is a hill, and the right side 它 looks like a tilted roof. Picture a hill so steep that even the roof on top is sliding off at an angle.
For タ, imagine a steep hill so sharp it looks like a tack pointing upward: tack -> タ, and the hill is dangerously steep.
