Etymology
Oracle bone script: Phono-semantic compound (形聲 /形声, OC *kriːl): semantic 虍 + phonetic 几 (OC *krilʔ) + semantic 口. Bronze script: Phono-semantic compound (形聲 /形声, OC *kriːl): semantic 比 + phonetic 甘 (OC *kaːm). The bottom component later corrupted into 白, leading to the Shuowen reinterpretation of ideogrammic compound (會意 /会意): 比 + 白.
