Translingual[edit]

Japanese 臭
Simplified 臭
Traditional 臭

Alternative forms[edit]

  • In Japanese shinjitai, the bottom component is simplified to 大, rather than the traditional 犬 (“dog”).
    • This character has technically been encoded in Unicode as 𦤀 (U+26900) but is not used in Japanese computing; instead, the character 臭 (U+81ED) changes appearance depending on the font.
    • A CJK compatibility ideograph exists at U+FA5C for the kyūjitai form used in Japanese which contains 犬 as its bottom component.

Glyph origin[edit]

Characters in the same phonetic series (臭) (Zhengzhang, 2003) 
Old Chinese
臭 *kʰljus
殠 *kʰljus, *qʰluʔ
糗 *kʰluʔ
嗅 *qʰlus, *qʰluŋs
齅 *qʰlus

Ideogrammic compound (會意): 犬 (“dog”) + 自 (“nose”), referring to the dog's strong sense of smell.

Etymology[edit]

Schuessler (2007) considers it to be cognate with 犨 (OC *kʰju, “sound of an ox breathing”) and connects it to Burmese ဟိုက် (huik, “to pant”).

Also compare 朽 (OC *qʰluʔ, “to rot; to decay”) (Baxter and Sagart, 2014).
