Glyph origin

[edit]

Phono-semantic compound (形聲形声, OC *ɢʷaːd, *ɢʷad) : semantic (to walk or run) + phonetic (OC *ɢʷad) — to go over; to cross.

Etymology

[edit]
(yuè) or (yuè): large battle-axe used as a symbol of authority in ancient China.
“to go over; to surpass; to overstep; to turn”
From Proto-Sino-Tibetan *grwat (to travel; to go through).
Related to 𨒋 (“to go over”), (“to go beyond; to transgress”) (Wang, 1982) and perhaps (OC *ɢʷa, “to go”) (Schuessler, 2007).
“modal particle”
Related to (OC *ɢʷad), (OC *ɢʷa) and (OC *ɢʷad) (Wang, 1982).
“Yue; Viet; State of Yue”
Related to (OC *ɢʷad, “Yue; Cantonese”).
This is a general name for numerous indigenous tribes in ancient southern China, which are collectively called Baiyue. The ancient State of Yue during the Zhou dynasty of China was initially written as (OC *ɢʷad, “large battle-axe”) — alternatively written as 𫑛 — and it is commonly believed the name Yue originates from this instrument, which was widely found in neolithic cultures of southeastern China and served as a symbol of authority and royalty.
See (OC *ɢʷad) for more on the etymology.
