Glyph origin
Characters in the same phonetic series (惢) (Zhengzhang, 2003)
Phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声, OC *ŋljolʔ, *ŋljulʔ): semantic 艸 + phonetic 惢 (OC *sqʰloːlʔ, *sklol, *sɡlolʔ)
Etymology
From Proto-Sino-Tibetan *(d/n)waj (“to hang from; to cling to; creeper”), whence Burmese နွယ် (nwai, “creeper”), Jingpho noi (“to hang”). See 垂 (OC *djol, “to hang down”), to which the word is possibly related, for more (STEDT).
