(Explanation from the entry for the simple form ​:) The simple-form character ​ guān (6 strokes) is said to be an old variant of ​ (​󰀃⿱​ xiào), or a variant of ​𠔉 (juàn), re-used as an abbrev. of the full-form character 關 (19 strokes), formerly abbrev. ​.
    The full-form character 關 guān ‘shut’ (with ​𢇇), formerly also wr. ​𨶚 (with ​𢇅), was abbrev. ​, and later simply ​.
    Note: ​ ← ​ ← 關(​􂃠𨶚); cf. ​/關 guān ‘shut’, ​𠔉 juàn ‘roll/ball up’.
    Compare: ​/關(​􂃠𨶚) guān ‘shut’ ← MC /kuan/; ​𠔉(​􀝛𨤑𢍏) juàn ‘roll/ball up’ ← MC /kjuans/ (SBGY).
    The Shuōwén Seal form of 關(​􂃠𨶚) guān ‘shut (a door)’ combines ​/​ (mén) ‘double-leaf doors’, and ​𢇇(​􂔕𢇅) guān ‘ply the shuttle in the loom’ (phonosemantic): apply the wooden bolt (through the lock of the door, to bolt/lock the door), as plying the shuttle (carrying weft through warp).
    Compare: ​(​􁂥) guān ‘coffin’, in SW glossed with a pun on 關; ​/關 guān ← MC /kuan/ (SBGY).
    Compare: ​, ​/​ shuān ‘door bolt’, formerly also wr. ​𣠸, ​𢩠, ​𣟴.
    Compare: ​/​(​􂏒) wān ‘draw a bow’, formerly also wr. 關.
    Compare: ​/​(​􁊮) guàn ‘string/pierce/penetrate’, formerly wr. ​(​􁊭); ​穿(​􁐃) chuān/chuàn ‘penetrate/string’.
    Note: As a component the form ​ stands for various old components.
    Compare: ​/​(​􂃹) lián ‘link’; ​ liánxì; ​ guānxi.
    Compare: ​(​􀓈) sòng ‘send’; ​(​􁝈𦩎𣍹) zhèn ‘crack/seam’.
    HDZ: ​ : (​) 關; ​󰀃: ​
