是 [shì] to be [shí] 寔 [tí] 月边
One monosyllabic entry in The ABC Chinese-English Comprehensive Dictionary (namespace Ci):
►¹shì* 是 {A} v. ①be ②〈environment:〉 wr. praise; justify ◆b.f. matter; affair ‖ guó∼ 国∼ national affairs ◆pr. this; all ◆s.v. right; true ◆adv. certainly; for sure ‖ Tiānqì ∼ rè. 天气∼热。 It sure is hot. ◆cons. A ∼ A it's A all right, but ... ‖ Hǎo ∼ hǎo, kěshì wǒ bù xǐhuan. 好∼好, 可是我不喜欢。 It's good all right, but I don't like it.
The top is 日 rì ‘sun’. The bottom 𤴓 is just a different way of writing 正 zhèng ‘correct’ (not the same as 疋 shū, which has a 乛 hook).
“从日, 从正, 会意。What was 正 controlled at 日 sun’s light... truthfulness, reality, existence” —Wieger.
A different explanation, which matches ancient bronze forms better, is that 是 derives from 早 ‘early’ (now 旦) over 止 zhǐ phonetic; the role of 早 is unclear.
