Glyph origin
Phono-semantic compound (形聲/形声, OC *prud) : semantic 竹 (“bamboo”) + phonetic 聿 (OC *b·lud, “writing brush”) – a hand holding a brush 聿. The bamboo (竹) refers to the material of traditional Chinese brushes.
Etymology
Benedict (1972) surmises that this might be a loan from Austro-Tai into Sino-Tibetan; cf. Proto-Austronesian *bulut (“hairy filaments of certain plants, husk”) (Cebuano bulut).
