The Shuōwén Seal form of 疋(​􀗠) shū ‘lower leg (calf, shin, ankle, foot)’ is said to derive from ​(​􀖉) zú ‘foot’; the curved top stroke ​ in 疋 depicts the ‘calf muscle’ (wr. ​ in ​; cf. ​/疋: ​ ‘barefoot’).
    Compare: ​(​􂥫) shū ‘intersperse (comments; record)’, formerly wr. 疋; 疋 is also phonosemantic in ​𤴙(​􀗡), ​𤕟(​􀗢); (SW:) ​(​􂥫) syn. ​𤕟(​􀗢); for the reading 疋 pǐ, cf. ​𤴓(​􂎃).
    Compare: ​(​􁅊) shǔ ‘make offering/gift/payment to a diviner’.
    Compare: ​(​􀖉) zú ‘foot’, ​(​􀑽) zhèng ‘right’, ​(​􀐏𧺆) zǒu ‘go’, ​(​􀑥) zhǐ ‘foot; stop’.
    Note: The top stroke ​ ends in a hook; there is no hook in ​𤴓/​ zhēng (as in ​ and ​).
