One monosyllabic entry in The ABC Chinese-English Comprehensive Dictionary (namespace Ci):
►³yóu 游[-/遊] {C} v. swim; float ‖ Méiyǒu chuán, wǒ zhị̌hǎo ∼ guò ²hé qù. 没有船, 我只好∼过河去。 There was no boat so I had to swim across the river. ◆b.f. ①travel ►lǚyóu 旅游 ②rove ►yóuguàng 游逛 ③associate with ④reaches of a river ►¹shàngyóu 上游 ►¹xiàyóu 下游 ◆n. Surname
The character 游 yóu ‘swim’ has the component 氵(水) shuǐ ‘water’ on the left, and 斿 yóu (phonetic) on the right; formerly wr. 汓/泅 qiú/yōu ‘float/swim’, the old character 游 had different usage.
The Shuōwén Seal form of 游(𨒰) liú ‘streamers’ combines 㫃() yǎn ‘streamers’, and 汓() qiú ‘float/swim’ (phonosemantic); formerly wr. 𨒰(), with the old form of 子(𡿹), cf. 流.
Note: Formerly 游 liú ‘streamers’, also wr. 斿; later 游 yóu ‘float/swim’, formerly wr. 汓(泅); the late variant form 遊 is today used as the full form in ‘travel’ senses; cf. 遊.
Compare: 浮() fú ‘float’; 攸() yōu ‘ford’ (formerly also wr. 泅).
