Glyph origin edit

Phono-semantic compound (形聲形声, OC *tiːlʔ): semantic 广 (building) + phonetic (OC *tiːl, *til) – the bottom or base, foundation of a building. Note that 氐 is a figure bowing or stooping, hence connotation of “down”.

Etymology 1 edit

Cognate with (OC *tiːl, “to lower; low”), (OC *tiːl, *tiːlʔ, *tiːls, “root of a tree; base”).
