Glyph origin[edit]

Originally an unorthodox variant of . Now made up of 广 (house) + (tree), an ideogrammic compound (會意会意) representing a wooden furniture item (a bed) in a house.

Etymology[edit]

Schuessler (2007) suggests that it may be related to Khmer រង (rɔɔng, to support from below), Old Mon [script needed] (joṅ, couch; bedstead).
