Etymology
Phono-semantic compound (形聲 /形声, OC *paːl, *paːls, *pʰaːn, *pʰan, *ban): phonetic 釆 (biàn) + semantic 田. Original meaning is unclear. Shuowen instead interprets it as a pictogram of an animal's footprint; original form of 蹯 (OC *ban). Tadashi Takada (高田忠周): a pictogram of some seeds on the palm of an open hand, which conveys the concept of "spreading"; original form of 播 (OC *paːls). Neither Shuowen nor Tadashi Takada interpret the bottom component as representing a field. ; “to do in turns; turn; time” ; “anime series”
