found in the clerical script. Mizukami lists one OBI form which he treats as KJ1970:848; YK1976:445; OT1968:114; MS1995:v1:108-9, 130-31; AS2007:167; SK1984:94. This is a difficult graph in terms of mnemonics, but we 608 L3 辺 HEN, atari, be vicinity, boundary 5 strokes HENKYŌfrontier KINPENvicinity kawaberiverside Bronze ; seal ; traditional . Has / 85 ‘walk, go’ (replaces bronze stage [‘road/go’ 131, same meaning]), and (original meaning: ‘cannot see’ [Yamada], or ‘both sides of the nose, nostrils’ [Katō; Ogawa also takes as ‘sides’]) as phonetic with associated sense typically taken suggest taking the left part as an 22 ‘opening’ with as ‘special’ variant of 78 ‘strength’. Mnemonic: USING KNIFE TO SPLIT OPENING NEEDS SPECIAL STRENGTH as ‘boundary’. Yamada posits a more distant meaning, i.e. ‘(spatial) ends of the earth’, which links to the original meaning he attributes to . Overall original meaning of is ‘walk along boundary’, later modified to indicate just the noun ‘boundary’ and extended to ‘vicinity, area’ (including ‘vicinity’ in the sense of approximation). MS1995:v2:1312-3; YK1976:446; KJ1970:851-2; OT1968:992. We suggest taking the modern graph as movement 85 and 198 ‘knife/cut’. Mnemonic: MOVEMENT CUTS THROUGH BOUNDARY 609 変 HEN, kaeru/waru change, strange L3 9 strokes HENSEImetamorphosis TAIHENvery kawarimonoeccentric Seal ; traditional Has () 112 ‘strike’, and (CO, original meaning: ‘thread becomes tangled’) as phonetic with associated sense ‘knock over and turn into something different’. Subsequently the sense ‘strike/knock over’ was omitted, to give the generalized meaning ‘change’. ‘Strange’ may be seen as an extended sense. Mizukami lists a few bronze forms which he takes as equivalents of . In the modern abbreviated shape , bottom element is in a variant 3-stroke shape (which is not ‘descending foot’: det. 34). KJ1970:898; YK1976:446-7; MS1995:v2:1214-5; OT1968:444. Suggest taking upper part as variant of 48 ‘red’ (i.e. sort of red) and, though incorrect etymologically, as cross-legs. Mnemonic: CHANGE TO A STRANGE SORT OF RED WHILE CROSS-LEGGED 610 L4 便 BEN, BIN, tayori convenience, mail, service 9 strokes BENRIconvenient BENJO (vulgar)toilet YŪBINpost, mail Seal ; late graph (Shuowen). Has 41 ‘person’, and 1323 (‘change’) as phonetic with associated sense ‘servant; use a servant’, and by extension ‘convenient, comfortable; service, mail’. The meaning ‘bodily waste’ appears to be a further euphemistic extension (cf. British English ‘public convenience’ in the sense ‘public toilet or restroom’). OT1968:66; YK1976:448-9.
