The simple-form character 树 (9 strokes) is an abbrev. of the full-form character ​ (16 strokes), replacing the full-form component ​ (12 strokes) with a shape like ​ (5 strokes).
    Note: ​ as a simple-form component corresponds to the full-form component ​ (the left part ​ becomes ​); ​ does not replace ​ in any other simple-form characters; cf. full form ​, in which ​ in the full-form component ​ becomes ​ in the simple form ​ (that inner component ​⿰​ is not an independent character).
    Note: ​ duì ‘toward’ as an independent simple-form character corresponds to the full-form character ​ (unrelated to ​, though somewhat similar in structure)
    The Shuōwén Seal form of 树/​ shù ‘tree’ (grown up straight) combines ​ mù ‘tree’, and ​ shù ‘stand up straight’ (phonosemantic); formerly wr. ​𡬾, in which the component ​ overwrites the top part ​(​𡳿) of ​(​𧯛) in ​.
    Note: The component ​ shù ‘stand/set up (straight/vertical)’ is later wr. 树/​ (树​).
    Compare: ​ shù, ​/​ shù ‘vertical’ (​).
    Compare: ​(​𥄂) zhí ‘straight/vertical’ (​), ​ zhí ‘plant’ (​).
    Compare: ​/​ chú ‘kitchen’; ​ shù ‘timely rain’.
