Glyph origin

edit
Characters in the same phonetic series (規) (Zhengzhang, 2003) 
Old Chinese
嫢 *ɡeːnʔ, *skʷel, *ɡʷilʔ
規 *kʷel
槻 *kʷel
鬹 *kʷel
摫 *kʷel
瞡 *kʷels, *kʷils
窺 *kʰʷel
闚 *kʰʷel

Traditionally an ideogrammic compound (會意／会意) : 夫 (“man”) + 見 (“see”). Smith (2011) proposes that the left component is instead the bottom of 癸 (OC *kʷilʔ), making it phonetic – compare the Shizhoupian script form at the entry 癸.

Notes for Old Chinese notations in the Baxter–Sagart system:

* Parentheses "()" indicate uncertain presence;
* Square brackets "[]" indicate uncertain identity, e.g. *[t] as coda may in fact be *-t or *-p;
* Angle brackets "<>" indicate infix;
* Hyphen "-" indicates morpheme boundary;

* Period "." indicates syllable boundary.
