About

产 (chǎn) is the simplified form of 產, a phono-semantic compound combining 生 (shēng, 'life' or 'birth') for meaning and 彦 (yàn) for sound, with 生 positioned beneath 彦. The simplification removed the 生 component. The character originally meant giving birth or generating new life, and later its meaning broadened, under the influence of agriculture and industry, to encompass manufacturing goods, creating products, and accumulating property, real estate, or industrial wealth.
