Etymology

Original form was 恖 (OC *snɯ), considered by Shuowen to be a phono-semantic compound (形聲 /形声, OC *snɯ, *snɯs): phonetic 囟 (OC *snɯns) + semantic 心 (“heart”). It may also be a ideogrammic compound (會意 /会意): 囟 (“fontanel”) + 心 (“heart”). 囟 started to corrupt into the unrelated 田 as early as the silk script.
