彙 = 彑 + 果
ㄏㄨㄟˋ · huì
verb/noun — to gather, collect; a collection (of words)
字源 FORM — what the parts do
彑形a bristled snout — the head of a hedgehog
The old graph is a hedgehog: 彑 the bristled snout above, the round bristled body below. The beast that rolls up and gathers everything onto its spines lends its name to gathering itself — to collect, and the collection that results: 彙集、詞彙、彙總.
故事 STORY — a scene to remember it by
一隻刺蝟(彑)縮成一團,滿身的刺上沾著葉子、果子,全收在一起。
A hedgehog (彑) curls into a ball, leaves and fruit caught all over its spines — everything gathered onto one body.
