Glyph origin edit

Historical forms of the character 與
Spring and Autumn	Warring States	Shuowen Jiezi (compiled in Han)	Liushutong (compiled in Ming)
Bronze inscriptions	Chu slip and silk script	Small seal script	Transcribed ancient scripts

Phono-semantic compound (形聲／形声, OC *la, *laʔ, *las) : phonetic 舁 (OC *la) + semantic 牙.

Etymology edit

"to be with; to associate with"

Unlikely to be the same word as 舁 (OC *la, “to lift”) (Schuessler, 2007).

"to give"

The same word as 予 (OC *laʔ). The word family 舍 (OC *hljaːʔ) is probably derived from this word (Schuessler, 2007). Compare Tibetan གླ (gla, “pay; wage; fare”), Mara Chin [Term?] (hla, “to present; to offer (sacrifice); to give”), Jingpho [script needed] (ja³³, “to give”).
