Ideogrammic compound (會意 ): ⺼ ( “ meat ” ) + 又 ( “ hand ” ) + 示 ( “ altar, ceremony ” ) – the hand offers a piece of meat at the altar during a ceremony.
The top is not related to but may be corrupted to 癶 in calligraphy and handwriting; 癶 also served as the second-round simplified form of the component. The left part is ⺼ twisted to the left (compare 將 , 然 ). The right part is a form of 又 .
