About
The character "褥" is structured with the cloth radical (衤) on the left, which classifies it semantically as related to textiles, combined with the component "辱" on the right, which historically served a primarily phonetic function but may also carry an associative sense of something low or pressed upon. Its core meaning, a padded mat or mattress used for sleeping or sitting upon, has remained consistently tied to this fabric-based function from its early appearances in classical texts through to modern usage. This conceptual stability is reflected in the character's traditional form, which is identical to its contemporary standard form, maintaining its composite nature without structural alteration over time.
