-<WL>饰(F飾) [shì] decoration; dress up; impersonate@@  [chì] cf. 飾
+<WL>饰(F飾) [shì] decoration/ornament; decorate/adorn/embellish, dress/make up, deck out; pretend/impersonate@@  [chì] cf. 飾
-From 饣(食) shí (‘eat’) phonetic and 巾 (jīn) ‘napkin’ signific. The two strokes 𠂉 are from 人 (rén) ‘person’.
+The character 饰/飾(􁔜) shì ‘wipe/clean up; head scarf’ combines 饣/食(􀷠𠊊) shí ‘eat’ (phonosemantic), 巾(􁓭) jīn ‘cloth/napkin/scarf’, and 𠂉/人(􁕎) rén ‘person’: a person wipes/cleans up with a napkin/handkerchief (after eating).
+	Note: The old meaning 飾 ‘wipe/clean up’ (now wr. 拭) underlies the character structure, in which the component 食 shí ‘eat’ is not simply phonetic (clean up after eating).
+	Note: Semantic development: ‘wipe/clean up; clean/wash/adorn; handkerchief/adorment/decoration’; 妆饰 ‘adorn; dress up; pretend; makeup’.
+	Compare: 㫃(􁉠􁉡𣃗) yǎn ‘flag/banner’ (as in 乾), in which the right side is not 人; 伤/傷(􁘬) shāng ‘wound/injury’, in which the right side abbrev. 矢.
+	Compare: 贲/賁(􁄛) bì (䷕), (SW:) syn. 飾.
