Glyph origin

[edit]
Historical forms of the character 召
Shang Western Zhou Warring States Shuowen Jiezi (compiled in Han) Liushutong (compiled in Ming)
Oracle bone script Bronze inscriptions Chu slip and silk script Qin slip script Small seal script Transcribed ancient scripts

Phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声, OC *dews, *djews): phonetic 刀 (OC *taːw) + semantic 口 (“mouth”) – originally, to call out (with one’s mouth) or to serve wine for guests. Part of the second original meaning is preserved in 招.

In the most ancient versions on some oracle bones, the character was totally different: it represented one or two hands over a wine vessel; the knife and mouth components were added later to this variant.

For the sense of "temple, monastery" in Inner Mongolia, the usage is derived from Mongolian ᠵᠤᠤ (ǰuu) / зуу (zuu, “Buddhist monastery”), ultimately Tibetan ཇོ་བོ (jo bo, “lord, master; revered statue of the Buddha”).
