Etymology
Ideogram (指事) - an arrowhead indicating "to enter". Compare 人 (rén). From Proto-Sino-Tibetan *nup ~ nip. Cognate with Tibetan ནུབ (nub, “to fall (gradually), sink, to set; to decay, to decline”) and Burmese နိပ် (nip, “to decline (e.g. price); to be suppressed, to settle, to be quelled”). Chinese characters belonging to the same word family include: * 納 (OC *nuːb, “to make enter”) * 內 (OC *nuːbs, “inside”) * 軜 (OC *nuːb, “reins on the inside of the horse”) * 妠 (OC *nuːms, *nuːb, *rnoːd, “to marry (a girl)”) * 躡 (OC *neb, “to tiptoe, tread”) * 攝 (OC *neːb, *ʔnjeb, “to take in, photograph, grasp”) * 鑷 (OC *neb, “tweezers, forceps”) * and potentially Cantonese 擸 (laap3, “to bring together, to collect”) The regular Mandarin pronunciation as predicted from Middle Chinese is rì. The irregular sound change is for taboo reasons - to avoid homophony with its derived vulgar meaning "to enter > to have sexual intercourse", nowadays represented by 日 (rì).
