Glyph origin

Historical forms of the character
Western Zhou Shuowen Jiezi (compiled in Han) Liushutong (compiled in Ming)
Bronze inscriptions Small seal script Transcribed ancient scripts

Phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声, OC *krɯm)Category:Han phono-semantic compounds#金00: semantic (upside-down ritual axe perhaps made of precious materials) + semantic (two blocks of metal) + phonetic . The semantic component in folk etymology is very often misinterpreted as . The minerals, originally drawn as : and then as , are sometimes indicated as , however the latter is the pictogram of two vertebrae.

The upper component Category:Pages using lite templates is the ancient form for (OC *krɯm) and it represents an open mouth flipped upside down; it indicates the original pronunciation of the whole character.

Shuowen interprets it as an image of metal in the earth (Xu Shen writes "象金在土中形") with Category:Pages using lite templates as phonetic. But the most ancient versions do not contain the pictogram of the earth.

Originally referred to copper, first used during the Copper Age and the Jade Age in China (hence before the Bronze Age, during which the first bronzes were produced); later the meaning was extended to metal as a whole, and then to gold.

Copper[prior to 5th BCE] → “metals in general” → “gold”.

The main senses now are “gold” and “metal”.
