Etymology

Oracle bone script: Phono-semantic compound (形聲 /形声, OC *rɯʔ): phonetic 來 (OC *m·rɯːɡ, “wheat”) + semantic 子. The phonetic part 來 became gradually corrupted to yield 木 (“tree”). Shuowen erroneously remarks that this is a phono-semantic compound (形聲 /形声, OC *rɯʔ): semantic 木 (“tree”) + phonetic 子 (OC *ʔslɯʔ).
