Glyph origin[edit]

Historical forms of the character
Shang Western Zhou Warring States Shuowen Jiezi (compiled in Han)
Oracle bone script Bronze inscriptions Chu slip and silk script Small seal script

Pictogram (象形) : (rope tying the bag of feed) + (bag of feed) – a bag of feed, hence livestock.

Alternatively, (rope) + or (pen; fold; enclosure) – tying animals and raising them in the enclosure.

Etymology[edit]

“To raise; to rear (an animal)” (*–k) > “domesticated animal; livestock” (*–k–s, exopassive: “what has been raised”). The various pronunciations in Old and Middle Chinese have been confused or merged in many extant dialects.

Etymology unknown. Probably from Proto-Sino-Tibetan *hu (to be born; birth; to rear), and thus may be related to (OC *qʰuːʔ, *qʰuːs, “good; to like”) (Matisoff). Alternatively, from Proto-Sino-Tibetan *kruŋ (to live; alive; to be born; to give birth; green; sprout), whence Tibetan འཁྲུང ('khrung, to be born; to arise; to sprout) (Schuessler, 2007).

Zhengzhang (2015) relates Tibetan ལུག (lug, sheep) to this word; this would be parallel to (OC *laŋ, “sheep”) ?~ (OC *laŋʔ, *laŋs, “to rear”) (Sagart, 1999). In Sagart (1999), is related to (OC *luɡ, “to nourish”) and (OC *kuɡ, *kʰuɡ, *ɡuɡ, “to rear”).
