<WL>体 [tǐ] (F體) (身体 shēntǐ) body; 具体 jùtǐ concrete  [tī] (F體) 体/梯己@@; (HDZ:) … [bèn] 笨: 粗劣  [cuì] (獄名)
The full form 體 is 骨 (gǔ) ‘bone’ plus 豊 ‘vessel’. The simple form was originally a variant of 笨 bèn (see below).
+
The character 体 originated as a variant of 笨(􀱩) bèn; today re-used as the simple form of 體 tǐ ‘body’, by analogy with older forms 躰, 骵; cf. 豊(􀵧𧯽), in which the shape like 𡴀(􁃏) abbrev. 本(􀾀).
“Body; corporation; substance, the essential; (treat as essential:) treat with consideration; form, type — is 豊 liei phonetic or co-signific (骨 bones and 豊 vessels)?” —Karlgren.
+
The Shuōwén Seal form of 体/(􀬣) tǐ ‘body’ combines 骨(􀬐) ‘bones’, and 豊(􀵧𧯽) lǐ ‘ritual vessel’ (phonosemantic); in SW the human body is said to comprise of 4 regions, each with 3 zones, giving 12 major parts total: the head (crown, face, jaw), the torso (shoulders, spine, waist/hips), the arms (upper-arm, forearm, hand), the legs (thigh, shin/calf, foot); cf. 龟.
The simple form 体 is completely different. It is the 本 (běn) main part of a 亻(人 rén) person: the body. (According to Henshall, the form 体, standard in Japan, “...has been used for several centuries as a substitute, but is technically a separate character with an early meaning of crude...”. Wieger lists 体 under phonetic series 147 as běn ‘rude’).
+
Older graphs associated with 體 have 身 or 肉 on the left side, cf. 軆, 𦡊 (HDZ).
According to HDZ, the first usage of 体 bèn was for 笨(􀱩) bèn, with the meaning ‘粗劣’; so the Simple form re-used a pre-existing character with a different meaning (本 is no longer phonetic in 体).
+
“[體] Body; corporation; substance, the essential; (treat as essential:) treat with consideration; form, type — is 豊 liei phonetic or co-signific (骨 bones and 豊 vessels)?” —Karlgren(AD).
