Chinese
Glyph origin
Phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声, OC *maŋ, *maŋs) and ideogrammic compound (會意 / 会意): phonetic 亡 (OC *maŋ, “to lose, disappear, flee”) + semantic 心 (“heart”). Doublet of 忙 (OC *maːŋ).
Etymology
From Proto-Sino-Tibetan *ma (“not”). Originally the same word as 亡 (OC *maŋ, “to lose, disappear, flee”) as suggested by Shijing rimes, but it was later suffixed with a perfective suffix *-s (or *-h), literally "it has disappeared (from mind)" (Schuessler, 2007).
