Glyph origin

More information Historical forms of the character 荒, Warring States ...

Phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声, OC *hmaːŋ, *hmaːŋs): semantic (grass, plant) + phonetic (OC *hmaːŋ). Note: The middle part could be found as instead of .

Etymology

From Proto-Sino-Tibetan *ma (not). Cognate with (OC *maŋ, “to disappear”). The voiceless initial is possibly from the devoicing effect of an early (i.e. Proto-Sino-Tibetan) causative prefix *s- on (i.e. PST *s-maŋ > *hmaŋ > Middle Chinese hwɑŋ) which was subsequently lost.

Pronunciation


Note:
  • horng1 - literary;
  • hng1 - vernacular (e.g. 放荒).
