First, etymological explanation.
No, the inscription on the bronze ware shows that people carry shellfish. Shells are an ancient currency. Those who pick up shells carry their backs, while those who travel far carry their backs. The original meaning of word-making: carrying shellfish on your shoulders. Seal script continues the golden glyph. The "quilt" in regular script is abbreviated as "quilt" according to cursive script. Negative, from people to shellfish, also has dependence. On the opposite side is the word knife, which means robbery with a knife; The next word is Bei, which is ancient money, representing things here.
Second, the interpretation of words.
Classical Chinese version of Shuo Wen Jie Zi: negation, dependence. From the person who keeps the shell, there is something to rely on. One day, the loan was not enough.
Vernacular version of Shuo Wen Jie Zi: passive and self-reliant. The glyph takes "person" as the edge, like a person holding a money shell and leaning on it. One view is that "negative" means taking goods without paying. ?
