Glyph origin edit

Characters in the same phonetic series (奧) (Zhengzhang, 2003) 
Old Chinese
襖 *quːʔ, *quːʔ
懊 *quːʔ, *quːɡs, *quɡ
燠 *quːʔ, *quːɡs, *quɡ
奧 *quːɡs
墺 *quːɡs, *quɡ
隩 *quːɡs, *quɡ
澳 *quːɡs, *quɡ
噢 *quʔ, *quɡ
薁 *quɡ
䉛 *quɡ

Shuowen interprets it as a Phono-semantic compound (形聲／形声, OC *quːɡs) : semantic 宀 (“roof”) + phonetic 𢍏 (), but is not widely accepted.
