Characters in the same phonetic series (熏) (Zhengzhang, 2003)
Phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声, OC *qʰun, *qʰuns): semantic 艹 + phonetic 熏 (OC *qʰun). However, the phonetic component is a reference to smoked herbs; it is also the original form of this character, so it indicates part of the meaning.
