Phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声 ,OC *sru ): semantic 扌 ( “ hand ” ) + phonetic 叟 ( OC *suːʔ ) .
叟 is the original character, also meaning “to search”, and depicting a hand holding a torch indoors.
Compare perhapsBurmese ရှာ ( hra ,“ to look for ” ) ,ရှု ( hru. ,“ to look at ” ) ; the former is a stronger semantic match, the latter a stronger phonetic match (Luce 1981 ).
