About
The character "疣" is constructed from the semantic component "疒", which broadly indicates illness or affliction, combined with the phonetic component "尤", which also carries a connotation of something outstanding or aberrant. This structure etymologically points to a physical protrusion or growth considered a blemish on the body. Its meaning, referring specifically to a wart or similar skin excrescence, has remained consistent and narrowly defined throughout its documented history, with no significant expansion or metaphorical shift in its core usage. The character's form itself is considered traditional and has not been subject to structural simplification.
