Glyph origin[edit]

Historical forms of the character 奠
Shang Western Zhou Shuowen Jiezi (compiled in Han) Liushutong (compiled in Ming)
Oracle bone script Bronze inscriptions Small seal script Transcribed ancient scripts
Characters in the same phonetic series (奠) (Zhengzhang, 2003) 
Old Chinese
奠 *diːŋs
鄭 *deŋs
擲 *deɡ
躑 *deɡ

Oracle bone script: Pictogram (象形) – an alcohol vessel (酉) placed on a mat (一).

In the bronze inscriptions, two strokes (八) were sometimes added above the alcohol vessel, representing overflowing alcohol; this is inherited in the small seal script as 酋. In some bronze inscriptions, two horizontal strokes were sometimes also added below the line representing a mat; the strokes sometimes were changed to something like 八. These two strokes then fused with the mat to give 丌 (a table with two legs) in the small seal script. 丌 later evolved into 大 by process of libian (隸變).
