Ideogrammic compound (會意 / 会意) and phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声, OC *kʰraŋ): semantic 卯 (“two men facing each other”) + phonetic 皀 (OC *pqrɯɡ, *pqrɯb, *krɯb, *qʰaŋ, “food vessel with a stand”) – people engaged in ritual feasting (Yang, 1965). The character was once indistinguishable from 鄉 (OC *qʰaŋ); see the Glyph origin section there for more.
