Where it comes from

會意漢字：犬 (“狗”) + 自 (“鼻子”) ，意指狗的靈敏嗅覺。

Schuessler (2007) 認為此詞和犨 (上古 *kʰju, “牛呼吸的聲音”)、緬甸語 ဟိုက် (huik，“喘氣”) 同源。

亦對照 朽 (上古 *qʰluʔ)（Baxter and Sagart, 2014）。

釋義 𦤀

  1. 難聞的氣味 體臭

  3. 味道難聞的 臭豆腐
  4. 令人厭惡的 臭架子
  5. 程度深而強烈地 臭罵
  6. 壞的，差的（運氣、技能等）
  7. 腐朽，敗壞 爾惟自鞠自苦：若乘舟，汝弗濟，臭厥載。

  1. 在標準漢語中已棄用 氣味 無色無臭
