Translingual [edit]
Etymology [edit]
Phono-semantic compound (形聲): semantic ⺮ (“bamboo”) + phonetic 寺
竹 here refers to the bamboo strips used for writing (e.g. grading, classification) in ancient times. 寺 was originally used phonetically; the character was subsequently borrowed for another word with the same meaning, but with no phonetic resemblance to 寺.
