Phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声 , OC *ɦljud ) and ideogrammic compound (會意 / 会意 ) : semantic 禾 ( “ grain ” ) + phonetic 朮 ( OC *l'ud, *ɦljud , “ glutinous millet ” ) . Originally written 朮 (not to be confused with 术 ).
Etymology 1
Area word (Schuessler, 2007 ); compare:
Proto-Hmong-Mien *mblut ( “ glutinous; sticky ” ) (Sagart, 1999 ; Schuessler, 2007 ; Ratliff, 2010 ; Baxter and Sagart, 2014 );
Proto-Austronesian *-lit ( “ caulk; adhesive material ” ) > Proto-Malayo-Polynesian *bulit ( “ glue; paste; stick; caulk ” ) (Ratliff, 2010 );
Proto-Austronesian *puluC ( “ Caesar weed , a mucilaginous plant” ) , Proto-Malayo-Polynesian *pulut ( “ birdlime, sticky sap of breadfruit, etc. ” ) (Sagart, 1993 ; Ratliff, 2018 ).
Sagart and Baxter (2010) posit that the *m- in their Old Chinese reconstruction, based on the Hmong-Mien evidence, may be a reduced form of 米 (OC *(C.)mˤjʔ , “millet or rice grains, dehusked and polished”).
