From ​ (zǒu) ‘go’ and ​ jǐ phonetic. There is variation in the appearance of 起 in modern computer fonts: sometimes the form is “​” with a ​ sì component, and sometimes it is “起” with a ​ jǐ component. And there is historical variation as well. As Duàn Yùcái explains in his Shuōwén commentary, forms with ​ jǐ are considered to be “incorrect” relative to Shuōwén traditions identifying the actual component as ​ sì. ​: “​。​。​。​。” See the Shuōwén Seal entry for more information.
