Glyph origin

edit
Historical forms of the character
Shuowen Jiezi (compiled in Han) Liushutong (compiled in Ming)
Small seal script Transcribed ancient scripts
   

Phono-semantic compound (形聲形声, OC *sʰuːn) : semantic (tree) + phonetic (OC *sʰuːns).

Origin unclear. Seems a late graph, not in Shuowen dictionary of ca.100AD. Ogawa treats it as variant of CO graph "lacquer tree" which was used phonetically in the sense of "village" in place of another graph for "village", , which may be taken provisionally as "settlement, village", and "accumulate, stay" as semantic and phonetic.[1]
