[QUOTE="npetreley, post: 312200, member: 2651"] Cool. Now let's see if you can graduate kindergarten, too. Entire characters are subject to etymology, but phonetics are subject to etymology, too, which (if you could read yet) you would have noticed from my analysis earlier in this thread. So no matter what you establish about the phonetic, it is only meaningful from the point in history when the phonetic emerged going forward. Going backward, however (as you'd also discover for yourself if you clicked on the glyph in that phonetic to see where it came from), you find that the upper half of that phonetic originated as the glyph for "eight" and the bottom half of the phonetic originated as "mouth". So what have we succeeded in doing? We've succeeded in walking you through everything we've covered at least 3 times already. Congratulations. Now go learn how to read and you won't need to have people repeat these things for you again and again. [/QUOTE]
