舍 (Kangxi radical 135, 舌+2, 8 strokes, cangjie input 人一十口 (OMJR), four-corner 8060₄, composition ⿳𠆢一古)

• 倽, 啥, 捨, 涻, 猞, 騇(𱅚), 舒, 舖, 䧾, 舘, 鵨

Phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声, OC *hljaːʔ, *hljaːs): phonetic 余 (OC *la) + semantic 口, which is a disambiguation glyph. The phonetic part 余 also indicates the meaning and represents a hut; hence, it is the original version of 舍.

"to stop, to halt, to rest" > "resting place" > "lodging house"

Apparently shared with Proto-Kam-Sui [Term?] (*s-lwa^B); Proto-Chinese root must have been *s-lwas, identical to PKS, with OC *sl- > *lh- and MC 去聲／去声 (qùshēng) (from *-h < *-s) corresponding to KS tone B (Schuessler, 2007). Schuessler further relates 舍 (OC *lhah) to 説／说 (shuì, “to halt, to rest overnight”) < OC *lho(t)s < *lhuats, which, being a closed syllable, reflexes Proto-Chinese medial *-w-; unlike 舍 (shè) < MC *ɕia^H < OC *lhah, an open syllable whose phonological structure (at least in MC) did not allow medial *-w-. Schuessler concludes: "The ambivalence in the forms, as in the finals in these two words, is typical for loan words".
