Glyph Origin: "Cool story bro?"
editI would like to add a 'citation needed' to the 'pictograph' explanation in the Glyph Origin section on this page. Ziyuan has a different explanation. [1] Hanzi Yuanliu Zidian has a different explanation identical to Ziyuan [2] 凡 is not even mentioned on this page: [3]. Also, there are some people who take 又 as a 声旁 now (even though it wasn't necessarily a 声旁 at first)- see 周有光 in 汉字声旁读音便查, p139. If it really is a pictograph, then sorry for causing trouble- either way, I think this body of evidence is sufficient to warrant some kind of review of the glyph origin we are presenting to the readers of Wiktionary. --Geographyinitiative (talk) 13:57, 18 December 2018 (UTC)
