Glyph origin edit

Characters in the same phonetic series (筮) (Zhengzhang, 2003)

	Old Chinese
噬	*djads
筮	*djads
簭	*djads
澨	*djads
遾	*djads

Phono-semantic compound (形聲／形声, OC *djads) : semantic 口 (“mouth”) + phonetic 筮 (OC *djads).

Etymology edit

Sagart (2021c) revises the Old Chinese reconstruction as *m-tet-s, from volitional prefix *m- + a root *tet-s (“to bite”), from which 瘈 (OC *k(ə)-tet-s, “mad; rabid (dog)”) also derives.
