The Shuōwén Seal form of 始 shǐ ‘begin’ combines 女 (nǚ) ‘woman’, and 台 sì (phonetic).
Note: The upper component of 台 sì is 巳 sì ‘fetus/embryo’ (inverted); 台 formerly wrote 始 (马王堆); 台/始 ‘give birth; be born’ → ‘begin’.
Bronze forms assoc. with 始 are said to have 司 sī (phonetic), sometimes with 㠯 added; cf. 嗣 sì ‘inherit’ (as in 后嗣 ‘descendant/offspring’).
Compare: 胎 tāi ‘fetus/embryo’ (胚胎); 后 hòu; 娄/婁(𡞔) lóu.
HDZ: 始 : shǐ : (金) 台/㠯: 从司声, 或司㠯/以 (司/姒同音; cf. 台: 嗣); 初, 开始 (cf. 台/始 (马王堆); 殆); 生; 治理; (副词) (初时, 当初; 刚刚,正; 只, 仅; 方才, 然后; 尝, 曾); (姓)
