| − | + | The Shuōwén Seal form of 曰() yuē ‘say/speak/state’ is said to combine 口(𠙵) kǒu ‘mouth’, with a curved line above 𠃊(𠃑𡿨) representing 气() qì ‘breath’ flowing out (carrying spoken words). | |
| − | 曰 yuē | + | Compare: 音() yīn ‘articulated/musical sound/tone’; 言() yán ‘direct speech’; 语/語() yǔ ‘discuss/debate’. |
| − | + | Note: In classical Chinese 曰 yuē ‘say/speak’ is used like modern 说/說 shuō ‘say/speak’ (“孔子曰… Confucius said ...”). | |

| − | # | + | Note: (诗) (東山) 我東曰歸、我心西悲 “When we were in the east, and it was said we should return, Our hearts were in the west and sad.” (Legge) |
| − | #y yeuhk- yuht-</WL> | + | Note: (诗) (角弓) 雨雪瀌瀌、見晛曰消 “The snow may have fallen abundantly, But when it feels the sun's heat, it dissolves.” (Legge) [(助词) (句中) 曰/聿; cf. 汩/𣅕 gǔ/yù ‘gurgle/flow’] |
| + | Compare: 汩() gǔ/yù ‘gurgling/rapids/current/flow’; 𣅕(𡿯) yù ‘current/flow/rapids’, also wr. 汩. | ||
| + | Compare: 曰 yuē ‘say’, vs. 日 rì ‘sun’; the two characters are easily confused, esp. as components; as an independent character 曰 yuē ‘say’ is often wider, and the middle horizontal stroke does not extend all the way to the right side; however, as a component such differences often disappear. | ||
| + | Note: In the modern form 曰 the central horizontal line 一 corresp. to the top horizontal segment of 口 kǒu ‘mouth’; the top horizontal segment of 曰() in the old form was a curved line like 𠃊(). | ||
| + | Note: Many more characters (some ten times as many) are classified under日部 (Radical #72) than under 曰部 (Radical #73); the relatively few characters historically assoc. with 曰 yuē are usually listed under both radicals 曰/日, but may have the component form that looks like 日. | ||
