Phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声, OC *dews, *djews): phonetic 刀 (OC *taːw) + semantic 口 (“mouth”) – originally, to call out (with one’s mouth) or to serve wine for guests. Part of the second original meaning is preserved in 招.
In the most ancient versions on some oracle bones, the character was totally different: it represented one or two hands over a wine vessel; the knife and mouth components were added later to this variant.
