## Chinese
### Glyph origin

| | Old Chinese |
| 榎 | *kraːʔ |
| 廈 | *sraːs, *ɡraːʔ |
| 嗄 | *sqʰraːs, *qraːds |
| 夏 | *ɡraːʔ, *ɡraːs |
Phono-semantic compound (形聲／形声, OC *sraːs, *ɡraːʔ) : semantic 广 + phonetic 夏 (OC *ɡraːʔ, *ɡraːs). However, the phonetic component means "great", hence it adds part of the meaning.

### Etymology 1

Related to 嘏 (OC *kraːʔ, “great”) (Wang, 1982).
