Phono-semantic compound (形聲 /形声,OC*zleŋ): semantic 心(“heart”) + phonetic 青(OC*sʰleːŋ).
Its meaning "feeling" promptsBenedict (1976) to connect it toProto-Sino-Tibetan*s-niŋ(“heart; brain; mind”); while its other meaning "proper nature, situation" suggests cognacy to生 (shēng, “to live, life”) (Boltz, 1976), though the initials of情 (OC *dzeŋ) vs.生 (OC *srêŋ) are difficult to reconcile (Schuessler, 2007) – not withstandingZhengzhang (2003)'s reconstructions情 (OC*zleŋ) vs.生 (OC*sʰleːŋ).
