The simple-form character 没 is a minor variant of the full-form character ​, replacing the old right-side component ​𠬛/​𣴬 (mò) with a shape like ​ (shū).
    Note: Today mainly 没 méi ‘not have, have no’ (as in 没​ méiyǒu ‘not have; there is not; be without’); formerly 没/​(​𣴬) mò ‘sink/drown’.
    Note: In the simple form 没 the right-side component ​ conflates two old characters, formerly distinguished as ​(​𠬸𠬛) mò ‘sink/drown’, vs. ​ shū ‘lance/stab/flail’.
    The Shuōwén Seal form of 没/​(​𣴬) mò ‘sink/drown’ combines ​(​ shuǐ) ‘water’ (river), and ​(​𠬸𠬛) mò ‘sink/drown’ (phonosemantic); formerly wr. ​(​𠬸𠬛).
    Note: ​(​𠬸𠬛) mò ‘sink/drown’, in which the upper part is ​(​) huí ‘vortex/whirlpool’, and the lower part ​ yòu ‘hand’ (of the sinking/drowning man).
    Compare: ​(​𣨏歿) mò ‘to die’.
    “[没] To dive, while ​ turning on one’s self, in order to ​ get something under water, the head being below; ​。​。​。By extension, to disappear, to be no more” —Wieger.
    Compare: ​沿 yán ‘flow down/along’.
