Phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声 ,OC *doŋ, *doŋʔ, *doŋs ) and ideogrammic compound (會意 / 会意 ): semantic 人 ( “ man ” ) + phonetic 東 ( OC *toːŋ ,“ bag ” ) – a man carrying a bag. A glyph土 (“earth”) was later added to show that the bag-carrying man is standing on the ground. From this composition (𡍺 ) is the current form. In the modern form, the man on top can be seen as亻 (however, the upper part of the character is unrelated to千 ).
See also以 , in which a person is carrying something,央 , in which a person is carrying a pole, and年 , in which a person is carrying the harvest.
Schuessler (2007) notes that the etymology is uncertain and compares the word toBurmese စုံ ( cum ,“ to be sufficient; pair ” ) , which STEDT puts underProto-Sino-Tibetan *dzum ~ tsum ( “ pair ” ) .
