Glyph origin
Originally an – a man with a cane looking around with his mouth wide open, not know where to go – to be confused; to doubt. Compare: and, both showing the "open-mouth" component but on a seated figure. In the oracle bone script and bronze inscriptions, or  = 彳 +  was often added to indicate travelling or movement.

Various components were added later, e.g. in the bronze script of,  in the -style scripts including the proto-clerical script, and  in the early clerical script of Western Han. Meanwhile the main graphical element showing a standing figure eventually became or sometimes  as in the -style script (shown in the table). The Chu also added a component indicating "the mind".

The , in which headwords were written in the Qin-style seal script, interpreted the character as “a child standing on an obstructed road to compare the paths”:. 's commentary on Shuowen offered an alternative interpretation, pointing out that was unlikely to have a the phonetic component:. However, it is unlikely that any of the currently extant components had once indicated the pronunciation. conjectured that the was a corruption of  that had been the phonetic component.

The current form is derived from the Qin–Han clerical scripts, where on the right-hand side the elements or  have recombined into.

Etymology 2
First attested in the as. This glyph was borrowed later to represent de, the possessive marker in Northern Chinese, superseding the earlier as a way to write this word.

There are three main competing proposals for its etymology:
 * Derived from the lenition of the literary genitive marker, which is still preserved in many phrases, and in the written form to some extent, especially in Taiwan.
 * Derived from the lenition of . Note that 的 is also a nominalizer like 者 in Classical Chinese.
 * Derived from the lenition of Middle Chinese demonstrative.

If from either of the first two etymons, possibly cognate with the demonstrative.

Possibly cognate with the particle sense of, which is homophonic but now has its specialised usage.

In contemporary times it is also used to represent unrelated equivalent particles in other Chinese varieties. Examples include 🇨🇬 (,, or , possibly derived from  ), 🇨🇬 gì , 🇨🇬 geq  and 🇨🇬 ge3 ( < ).

 * According to a book of Henriette Walter I have at home, the french word boulevard come from medieval Dutch. Searching internet, I have found that (you speak french, don't you ?) " boulevard : Vient du néerlandais "bolwerk" ou "bolwerc", qui désignait des fortifications (terre-plein d'un rempart). Aux XVIIIème et XIXème siècles, ces fortifications ont été détruites et remplacées par de larges avenues bordées d'arbres." Koxinga 09:11, 23 Oct 2003 (UTC)

Etymology 2

Short for or, from  or  (compare modern 🇨🇬 or ), a transcription of , present participle of 🇨🇬 verb.

A number of Japanese dictionaries state that this term derives from 🇨🇬, purportedly meaning “hanging upside-down” in reference to the souls of the dead being tortured in hell by being strung up by their feet. However, the 🇨🇬 word was sparsely, if at all, attested ; in addition, it would be the present participle of verb, with no inherent “upside-down” meaning.

Moreover, neither the purported meaning of “hanging upside-down” nor the verifiable meaning of “hanging” match the semantics very well, given that the urabon ceremonies are about helping the dead, closer in meaning to the “helping” sense of the 🇨🇬 verb. This suggests that explanations of the dead hanging upside-down in hell are more likely to be folk etymologies based on a mistaken connection to the 🇨🇬 verb, rather than a more direct semantic link to the 🇨🇬. Alternatively, (apud ) propounded that the origin was in fact 🇨🇬, a colloquial corruption of 🇨🇬, and that the etymology was mistakenly attributed to Sanskrit.
