+The Shuōwén Seal form of 围/圍(􁄈) wéi ‘surround; guard’ combines 囗(􁃰) wéi ‘surround’ (phonosemantic), and 韦/韋(􀻀) wéi (phonosemantic).
-	Originally this word was written 囗, representing an enclosure. The phonetic part 韦(韋) wéi was subsequently added.
+	Note: 囗(􁃰) wéi ‘surround’ is a sub-component of 韦/韋(􀻀); cf. 韦.
+	Compare: 维/围护 wéihù ‘safeguard; defend; uphold’.
