The full form 時 combines 日 rì ‘day’ and 寺 sì ‘court official’ (phonetic).
In the simple form 时, the full-form component 寺 is abbrev. to 寸 (cùn ‘measure’).
Shuōwén includes, in addition to 時, an old variant 旹, with 之(𡳿) zhī (phonetic); perhaps 時 simply combines 旹 and 寸 (and then 時 abbreviated resulted in the common component 寺).
Compare: , 是 shì ‘be’, 春(萅𣊨㫩) chūn ‘springtime’.
