<WL>丮(=􀟸𠃨丸𩰊) (?𢩦) [guàn] [] (Unihan:) “catch”
<WL>丮(=􀟸𠃨𩰊丸)(?𢩦)(!􀠀𡴈𠩀𠨭􂅆據􂆑据􀠁鬥) [] hold in the (right) hand/fist@@; (HDZ:) (SW: 持) 握持 (cf. SW: 持: 握; SW: 爪: 丮)
The component 丮 (4 strokes) is an abbrev. of the old form 𠃨 (6 strokes), replacing the old part (手) with (扌), as in 𠨭/𠩀/𡴈.
The Shuōwén Seal form of 丮(􀟸𠃨) ‘hold in/with the (clenched/right) fist/hand’ depicts a 手(􂄛) shǒu ‘(right) hand’, 乁(􀠡􀠢𢎜) clenched into a fist, holding something tightly (a clenched right hand in which something is held).
Compare: 及(􀠠􀠣𨕤􀠢𢎜􀠡乁) jí ‘catch (up to); reach’ (outer component of 丮); 急(􁳳㤂) jí ‘urgent’; 夃(􀻛) gǔ ‘profit’.
Compare: 𠨭(􀠀𡴈𠩀𠩉𩰋) jú ‘hold in/with the (clenched/left) fist/hand’; 斗/鬥(􀠁) dòu ‘(fist) fight’.
Note: 丮(􀟸𠃨𩰊) reversed (flipped horizontally) becomes 𠨭(􀠀𡴈𠩀𠩉𩰋); together they form 斗/鬥(􀠁).
Note: The outer stroke ⺄/厂 in both forms 丮(􀟸𠃨𩰊) and 𠨭(􀠀𡴈𠩀𠩉𩰋) depicts the outside of the balled/clenched hand/fist, holding tightly onto something (in its grasp); the thing held in the hand (which cannot be seen) is represented by the 手 shǒu ‘hand’ itself (which blocks the view of the thing grasped), suggesting 友(􀠴㕛) yǒu ‘good friends’ (help-mates, going hand-in-hand), not 斗/鬥(􀠁) dòu ‘(fist) fight’.
Note: The inner component 手 (4 strokes) in both forms 丮/𠨭 is abbrev. like /扌 (3 strokes).
Note: As a component, old 丮(􀟸𠃨) is abbrev. to a shape like 丸 (3 strokes), as in 执/執(􁰾𡙕) zhí ‘nab/catch a thief/crook’, 巩(􀟼𢀜) gǒng ‘embrace/maintain’.
Compare: 丸(􁦑) wán ‘(small and) round’, reverse of 仄(􁦋􁦌𠨮) zè ‘lean/slant/oblique’.
