Glyph origin[edit]

Phono-semantic compound (形聲形声, OC *kraːs): semantic + phonetic (OC *kraː).

Etymology[edit]

Exoactive of (OC *kraː, “home, house”), with the addition of the denominal verbalisation suffix *-s in Old Chinese, meaning “to go to one's new home; to become married”. In the Baxter–Sagart system, an additional pronunciation is posited for the causative sense (“to make someone become married; to marry off”), formed with the prolific Old Chinese causative prefix *s-. Compare .
