(Explanation from the entry for the simple form 儿:) The simple-form character 儿 is an abbrev. of the full form 兒, omitting the top component 臼; the two forms 儿/兒 are traditionally distinct, 儿 being the bottom part of 兒; cf. 兒(𠒆).
The Shuōwén Seal form of 儿() rén ‘person’ is a variant wr. of 人() rén ‘person’, used as the bottom ‘two legs’ of many characters (and hence it is curved/bent, under the weight).
Compare: 元(), 无(), 先(), 光(灮), 兑/兌(), 充(), 见/見(), 竟(), …
儿 is tenth of the 214 radicals (人 is 9th).
Note: The full form 兒 Ní (surname) is retained in simple-form texts (GFC).
