mean ‘monetary change’. Note: was originally

Seal ; a late graph (later version of
Shuowen). In one analysis, has 10 ‘shell
currency, valuables’, and 1598 (‘divination’)
as phonetic with associated sense
‘store, put aside’, thus ‘give as security’ as the
early meaning (Ogawa). In Shirakawa’s view,
however, this represents the later meaning
as given in Shuowen xinfu. On the basis of
earlier usage, he takes the original meaning
as ‘add to, supplement’, and points out that in
the Tang Dynasty when Imperial edicts were
amended this was referred to in Chinese as
(tie huang) ‘attach/stick yellow [paper]’.

Seal ; a late graph (Shuowen). Has
54 ‘foot, leg’, and 573 (‘sign, omen’) as
phonetic with associated sense ‘leap up’,
thus ‘dance upwards’ (Ogawa). Shirakawa
considers also has a semantic function
here, linking it to the cracks which ran
along a turtle shell when heated as part of
the divination process employed in Shang
times (see 573). OT1968:972; SS1984:604;
