===Glyph origin===
{{Han etym}}

According to ''[[w:Shuowen Jiezi|Shuowen Jiezi]]'', the {{zh-l|*𡇒}} character (note that this Unicode character has undergone ''[[w:libian|libian]]'' simplification) atop {{zh-l|*𦞅}} is a {{liushu|p|nocap=y}} of a stomach. While the bronze script form merely consisted of two concentric circles, an inner portion of the character was later added, namely a mutated form of the [[seal script]] character of {{zh-l|*米}} ("rice"), representing grains within the stomach (see also [[鬯]]).

A {{zh-l|*肉}} component (modern radical form {{lang|zh|⺼}}, not to be confused with the unrelated {{zh-l|*月}}, a moon) was added to specialise the character. Upon transition to the [[clerical script]] form, the upper component was simplified to the unrelated {{zh-l|*田}}, which however has a reference to rice and food.

The ancient form of the character can be seen within the lower component of {{zh-l|*𦳊}}.
