Phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声 , OC *djas ) : semantic 罒 + phonetic 者 ( OC *tjaːʔ) ; the upper component is a web, not an eye.
Etymology
Baxter and Sagart (2014) derive it from a root *taʔ ( “ to place ” ) , from which they also derive 緒 (OC *s-m-taʔ , “to arrange in order”). The root also has a velar variant *tak , whence 著 (OC *t<r>ak , “to place”), 著 (OC *t<r>ak-s , “visible”), 席 (OC *s-m-tAk , “mat”) (Baxter and Sagart, 2014 ; Schuessler, 2007 ).
