Etymology
"Warship (with boards installed on its four sides to defend against arrow attacks)" (') > "warship" > "ship" ('). A specialised character derived from ; see there for more on the external etymology.

This character is a classic example of historical misreadings of unfamiliar characters. The l- initial in southern dialects is probably due to confusion with, not due to divergent evolutions of the Old Chinese cluster initial *gr- as this character is often cited as an example of. Likewise, the readings in other Chinese are misreadings, although this is more subtle. Expected Mandarin reflex is xiàn, and jiàn is due to confusion with. Wu and Eastern Min readings are results of confusion with. Despite these irregularities, all the Sinoxenic readings are regular.

艹

Alternative forms
The non-radical form of this character is 艸, with six strokes, and that appears as a radical in a few characters (芔, 茻, and stacked vertically in 芻).

In almost all other characters, however, the radical is a simplified top form. This top form is traditionally written as two separated crosses, 艹, with four strokes (like 十 十, separation may not be visible at small font size). In its modern form, it is a single unit of 艹 (or in some character styles 䒑), with three strokes. Traditional Chinese characters today use either the traditional or modern radical form, while simplified Chinese characters, Japanese shinjitai, and Korean Hanja use the modern radical. All this can lead to the grass radical being counted as three (艹), four (艹), or six (艸) strokes.

Additionally, the four stroke radical ⻀ (two separated sideways T's) has also been simplified as the three stroke 艹 radical, even though it is not a radical form of 艸. A few characters using ⻀ include 茍, 蘷, and 虁.

The Unicode encodings for the different forms are:

 * normal character (艸) U+8278 in the CJK Unified Ideographs block
 * full radical form (⾋) U+2F8B in the Kangxi Radicals block
 * modern 3-stroke top radical (艹) U+8279 in the CJK Unified Ideographs block
 * alternate 3-stroke top radical (䒑) U+4491 in the CJK Unified Ideographs block
 * traditional 4-stroke double-cross top radical (艹) U+FA5E in the CJK Compatibility Ideographs block
 * 4-stroke T-shape top radical (艹) U+FA5D in the CJK Compatibility Ideographs block

In Hong Kong, the stroke order for the traditional top radical of two crosses, is vertical, horizontal, vertical, horizontal, rather than the usual order of vertical, horizontal, horizontal, vertical.

Etymology 1

From. One of the oldest attested words in the Japanese language, used in the Man'yōshū and Nihon Shoki.

This character usually means a type of in Chinese. However, it was also used phonetically in (modern 🇨🇬), and it seems that the Japanese use of this character for the sense of  may have come from this sesame sense in Chinese.

Verb

 * 1) short for : to hide in the grass and spy on one's enemies or scout out the situation

Etymology 2
Compound of. The kanji was used as an ateji, probably based on its on'yomi of shi.

Noun

 * 1)  “shi-type”, referring to the i adjective in Japanese grammar, specifically the, corresponding to modern Japanese adjectives ending in -i but not -shii
 * This is the nomenclature used in the grammar devised by 富士谷成章 (Fujitani Nariakira), a classical Japanese scholar and grammarian in the middle Edo period. Modern i adjectives still had the ending in -shi in the mid-Edo period, hence Fujitani's description of these as the “shi-type” of adjective.
