Glyph origin edit

Historical forms of the character
Shang Western Zhou Warring States Shuowen Jiezi (compiled in Han) Liushutong (compiled in Ming)
Oracle bone script Bronze inscriptions Chu slip and silk script Small seal script Transcribed ancient scripts
         

Phono-semantic compound (形聲形声, OC *sɢʷin) : phonetic (OC *lin, *linʔ) + semantic (sun; day).

The pictographic protoform of was borrowed to represent "period of days" in oracle bone script. In bronze inscriptions, the semantic component (“sun/day”) was added to this character. In the Warring States period, the phonetic component was mistaken as (“bow down”), hence the incorrect analysis in Shuowen Jiezi of this character as + .
