Glyph origin

[edit]
Historical forms of the character 帥
Western Zhou Shuowen Jiezi (compiled in Han)
Bronze inscriptions Small seal script

Ideogrammic compound (會意／会意) : 寻 (“two hands”) 巾 (“scarf”) - to wear a scarf. Shuowen Jiezi interprets it as Phono-semantic compound (形聲／形声, OC *sruds, *srud) : phonetic 𠂤 (*C.tˤuj) semantic 巾.

Etymology

[edit]

Also written as 率 (OC *sruds, *rud, *srud, “to lead”); both represent the s-causative of 律 (OC *rud, “to follow”). Cognate with Tibetan སྲིད (srid, “commander, leader”).
