About
码 (simplified) and its traditional form 碼 are phono-semantic compounds. The left radical 石 (stone) provides the meaning, while the right component 马 (traditional 馬) indicates the pronunciation. Originally, it referred to stone weights used on scales for weighing goods and setting prices. From this concept of measurement and calculation, the meaning extended to numbers, numerical symbols, and tallies. In modern usage, this numerical sense further encompasses digital codes, passwords, and the imperial unit of a yard.
