Has 16 ‘metal’, and 1281 (now ‘combine’, but originally showing hand holding two ‘grain plants’: see 87) as phonetic with associated sense ‘curved and sharp’, giving ‘sickle’, and possibly also having a semantic relevance.

The graph depicts something being tasted in the mouth, and by extension ‘good to eat’; the specific taste ‘sweet’ evolved as the dominant sense. A graph which has changed in shape very little Seal ; a late graph (Shuowen). Has 198 ‘knife, cut’, and CO ‘shears’ (considered to be the original way of writing ) as semantic and phonetic, giving ‘shears’; by extension, ‘cut grass, reap’. KJ1970:136-7; OT1968:110; AS2007:568. Mnemonic: CUT CROP WITH SHEARS AND KNIFE from the OBI stage. The meaning of ‘presume upon’ is an extended meaning of being nice/ sweet to a senior person in return for their future help in furthering one’s career or similar. This ‘amae’ is said to be a feature unique to Japan but this is incorrect, with many cultures having the same basic presumption. OT1968:664; MS1995:v2:864-6; KJ1970:208; MR2007:309.

Has 42 ‘water, liquid’, and 840 (‘weapon; dry’) as phonetic with associated sense ‘come out to excess, pour out all over the place’, giving ‘sweat’. It does seem somewhat ironic to have a character normally meaning ‘dry’ to express ‘pour out’, and it may be better to think of it in its earlier meaning as ‘weapon’.
