Phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声, OC *kaːls): semantic 亻 (“person”) + phonetic 固 (OC *kaːs).

### Etymology

The semantics may have developed along the grammaticalisation process "bamboo stalk" (箇) > "piece, item" > "classifier for every category of noun" > "possessive particle, generic particle". If so, it would then possibly be cognate with 竿 (OC *kaːn, “bamboo, rod”). Compare Tibetan མཁར་བ (mkhar ba), འཁར་བ ('khar ba, “walking stick, staff”) and Thai ก้าน (gâan, “stem, stalk”).

#### Southern Min classifier and possessive particle

    Hokkien ê/gê (classifier), ê (possessive particle), Teochew gai5 (classifier), gai7 (possessive particle): from 其 (OC *ɡɯ) (Li, 2002; Douglas, 1873). Cognate with Eastern Min 其 (gì, possessive particle), Northern Min 的 (gâ̤, possessive particle). The modern forms of these cognates all derive from the 陽平／阳平 (yángpíng) tone.

#### Wu classifier and possessive particle

    Though the expected pronunciation (in for instance Shanghainese) would be /ku/, this has undergone glottalisation (Dai, 2004). Compare 勒 (“to be in, to be at”), 搭 (“to”). In Shanghainese, this often undergoes further lenition to /ɦəʔ/.

##### Usage notes

* For Hokkien, Taiwan's Ministry of Education recommends 个 for the general classifier ê and 的 for the possessive particle ê, reserving 個 for the month classifier kò.
* For Hakka, Taiwan's Ministry of Education recommends 个 for the possessive particle.
* In Cantonese, when used for "yuan/dollar", 個 is usually only used when followed by cents.
* Northern Wu languages can mark for tenses, as well as aspects. In Old Shanghainese, this is used to mark the past tense, as opposed to a perfect aspect. In etymological spellings, 箇 (=搿) is reserved for demonstrative pronouns, 个 for the possessive particle, while 個 is only used as classifier (一個 $^7$iq-g(h)eq) or literary readings (個人 $^5$ku-gnin).
