### Glyph origin

Historical forms of the character 業 :
| Western Zhou | Shuowen Jiezi (compiled in Han) | Liushutong (compiled in Ming) |
| Bronze inscriptions | Small seal script | Transcribed ancient scripts |
| | Old Chinese |
| 礏 | *ŋoːb |
| 業 | *ŋab |
| 鄴 | *ŋab |
| 驜 | *ŋab |
| 嶪 | *ŋab |
| 鸈 | *ŋab |
| 澲 | *ŋab |
Various explanations exist:
* Pictogram (象形) – beam from which bells and chimes hang.
* Pictogram (象形) – a person lifting said beam.
* Ideogrammic compound (會意 / 会意): 丵 (“chisel”) + 大 (“person; big”) – to launch a great attack.
Up until the Warring States period, the character was written doubled as 𪴨 and sometimes as 𫨱. The latter is a phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声) using 去 (the original form of 盍 (OC *ɡaːb)) as a phonetic component. In bamboo slips the vertical stroke of 丵 extended such that the bottom looks like 木.
