Glyph origin

[edit]
Characters in the same phonetic series (往) (Zhengzhang, 2003) 
Old Chinese
暀 *ɢʷaŋs, *ɢʷaŋʔ, *ɢʷaŋs
誑 *kʷaŋs, *ɡʷaŋ, *kʷaŋs
枉 *qʷaŋʔ
往 *ɢʷaŋ

According to the version on bronzes, originally phono-semantic compound (形聲／形声, OC *ɢʷaŋ) : semantic 止 (“foot”) + phonetic 王 (OC *ɢʷaŋ, *ɢʷaŋs), hence the original version is 㞷; see also the top component of 出 and 岁. Later 彳 was added to form phono-semantic compound (形聲／形声, OC *ɢʷaŋ) : semantic 彳 (“walk”) + semantic 止 (“foot”) + phonetic 王 (OC *ɢʷaŋ, *ɢʷaŋs). Hence, the new character 𢓸 was coined.

Eventually, the right component was stylized into the unrelated 主. The fooprint pointing upwards on top became a point as in the character 之.

From Proto-Sino-Tibetan *s-wa-ŋ (“to go; to come”). Cognate with Burmese ဝင် (wang, “to come in; to enter”), Tibetan འོང ('ong, “to come”), ཡོང (yong, “to come”). Related to 于 (OC *ɢʷa, “to go”).
