    Hint
    The advancement of white vapor or mist, exemplified as that from a vast swampland, and also used for unrelated meanings by sound loan. Scholars think this differentiated from 睪, as 「皋」「㚖」「睪」 were almost indistinguishable before the Western Han dynasty (206 BCE - 9 CE.) (empty)
    Components
    • Meaning
      • hint: Ostensibly signifying the meaning of "white" vapor, but probably a remnant of the 目 in 睪/𥇡/𬐇. (empty)
    • SoundMeaning
      • hint: Traditionally noted in different sources as providing both meaning and sound, but actually differentiated from 㚔 in stages similar to 𠦍, as seen in variants like 皐. (empty)

    Changed: hint, components

  • edit character approved — "Maybe this character should not have any component breakdown at all since it's considered to be a corrupted remnant of old forms of 睪, but there are other characters here with phonetic components marked that were produced as a result of phoneticization of a remnant. I'm still looking for better sources on how exactly this differentiated from its origin." by cochleoid
