Glyph origin

[edit]
Characters in the same phonetic series (离) (Zhengzhang, 2003) 
Old Chinese
謧 *reːl, *rel
璃 *reːl, *rel
離 *reːls, *rel, *rels
縭 *rel
离 *rel, *r̥ʰel
醨 *rel
樆 *rel
褵 *rel
漓 *rel
黐 *rel, *r̥ʰel
籬 *rel
灕 *rel
蘺 *rel
攡 *rel
魑 *r̥ʰel
螭 *r̥ʰel
摛 *r̥ʰel

Phono-semantic compound (形聲／形声, OC *reːls, *rel, *rels) : phonetic 离 (OC *rel, *r̥ʰel) + semantic 隹 (“bird”) – black-naped oriole (Oriolus chinensis). This sense is preserved in the compound 離黃.

Phonetically borrowed for the sense "to depart".

The 3rd trigram, formed of ⚊ over ⚋ and ⚊
The 30th hexagram, formed of ☲ and ☲

Etymology

[edit]

From Proto-Sino-Tibetan *g(r/l)aːj (“scatter, sow, dispersedly widely; wide; star”) (STEDT). See 侈 (OC *l̥ʰjalʔ, “extravagant”) for more.
