Characters in the same phonetic series (世) (Zhengzhang, 2003) 

Possibly a phono-semantic compound (形聲 / 形声, OC *l̥ʰaːb, *l'eːb): semantic 魚 (“fish”) + phonetic 枼 (OC *leb). Another explanation is that it is an ideogrammic compound (會意 / 会意): semantic 魚 (“fish”) + semantic 枼 (“flat, wide, thin”). It is possible that the two interpretations influenced each other.
