The Shuōwén Seal form of 完 wán ‘complete/whole/intact’ (完​全) combines ​宀 mián ‘roof’ (covering), and ​元 yuán ‘beginning/primitive’ (phonosemantic); formerly also used for ​寬 kuān ‘spacious rooms’, and hence the ​宀 component.
    Compare: ​梡 hún ‘whole/unsplit firewood’; ​院 yuàn ‘solid’, ​𡨡/​寏 yuàn/huán ‘enclosing wall of a house; yard’.
    Compare: ​俒 hùn ‘complete/whole’.
