叀義a loaded spindle, turning steadilyworn into the top of the modern glyph; read zhuān on its own
A heart (心) turning toward another as steadily as a spindle (叀) — kindness given freely. The old graph carries two tellings: 叀 the spindle as a picture of devoted, even-handed giving, or 叀 zhuān lending the sound. The good turned outward: 恩惠、優惠、互惠.
