### Alternative forms

The form of this character differs slightly between China and Japan:
    in China: 鼻,
    in Japan: 鼻
That is, in China the bottom is 丌 (strokes T-junction), while in Japan the bottom is 廾 (strokes cross).
Due to Han unification, they share the same codepoint.

## Chinese
### Glyph origin

* Historical forms of the character 鼻
* Shuowen Jiezi (compiled in Han)
* Small seal script
| | Old Chinese |
| 箅 | *piːds, *pids |
| 濞 | *pʰiːds, *pʰrids |
| 畀 | *pids |
| 痹 | *pids |
| 淠 | *pʰrids |
| 嚊 | *pʰrids |
| 鼻 | *blids |
| 襣 | *bids |
Phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声, OC *blids) : semantic 自 (“nose”) + phonetic 畀 (OC *pids).
自 (OC *ɦljids) originally meant “nose” but came to be used to mean “self”, so the sense of “nose” has been replaced by 鼻 (OC *blids). Some scholars interpret 鼻 (OC *blids) as a combination of a nose (自 (OC *ɦljids)) and two lungs (畀 (OC *pids)), however 畀 on oracle bones represents an arrow.

### Etymology

From Proto-Sino-Tibetan *bi (“nose”); compare Nuosu ꅳꁖ (hnap bbit, “nose; snot”).
Alternatively, it may be from Proto-Sino-Tibetan *s-brit (“sneeze; nose; swallow”), whence Tibetan སྦྲིད (sbrid, “sneeze”), but there is no trace of r in Chinese (Schuessler, 2007).
In some modern lects, including Mandarin, Gan, Jin, Wu, and Xiang, and even in the literary layer of some Min dialects, the word reflects a form with final *-t. For example, in standard Mandarin, the word is pronounced bí (implying an old entering tone) instead of bì (the expected reflex from the departing tone in Middle Chinese). This is due to a phonological phenomenon in the northwest, either an early loss of *-s in the *-ts cluster before regular final cluster simplification occurred (Baxter, 1992), or a dialectal change from *-s to *-t (Pulleybank, 1998).
