The simple-form character 产 (6 strokes) is an abbrev. of the variant ​ (11 strokes) of the full-form character ​ (11 strokes), omitting the inner component ​ (5 strokes).
    The full-form character ​ (Big5) is also sometimes wr. ​ (HDZ), though the form ​ more closely follows the Seal.
    The Shuōwén Seal form of ​ chǎn ‘to produce (offspring/fruit/goods)’ combines ​(​𤯓) shēng ‘bear/produce’, and ​/​ yàn ‘able/exceptional/famous (productive) man’ (abbrev. phonosemantic).
    Compare: ​/​ yán ‘color’ (​).
    “The ​ wrinkles formed on the body consequent upon ​ child-birth. Fecundity, to bear, to produce” —Wieger.
    “The signific is ​, interpretation of the rest uncertain” —Karlgren(1923).
