    HDZ: 類 : lèi : ​, ​; ​, ​; ​; ​, ​; ​, ​; ​, ​; ​; ​, ​; ​; ​, ​, ​; (​) ​, ​; (​) (​) (​) ​; (​) ​; (​); ​: (​, ​, ​; ​)
(Explanation from the entry for the simple form ​:) The simple-form character ​ (9 strokes) is an abbrev. of the full-form character 類 (19 strokes), omitting the right-side full-form component ​ (9 strokes), and changing the lower-left full-form part ​ (4 strokes) to ​ (3 strokes).
    The full-form character 類, later also wr. ​𩔖⿰​, was formerly wr. ​.
    The Shuōwén Seal form of 類(​􁬘) lèi ‘kind/type’ combines ​(​􁫐) quǎn ‘dog’ (as in ​ ‘shape’), and ​(​􁡎) lèi ‘similar’ (phonosemantic); formerly wr. ​(​􁡎), cf. ​.
    Compare: ​/​(​􂐑) lèi ‘knot (in silk)’ (difficult to untangle), in which the component is ​ instead of ​.
    “[類] Categories: ​ rice, exemplifying the vegetable kingdom, ​ dog, the animal kingdom, and ​ head, the human world” —Karlgren(AD).
