Glyph origin[edit]

Characters in the same phonetic series (津) (Zhengzhang, 2003)

	Old Chinese
葏	*ʔslen
津	*ʔslin

Phono-semantic compound (形聲, OC *ʔslin): semantic 水 (“water”) + phonetic 𦘔. 𦘔 has been simplified into the unrelated 聿 (OC *b·lud) in the clerical script.

Etymology[edit]

From 濟 (OC *ʔsliːls, “to ferry”) + nominal suffix *-n (Schuessler, 2007).
