Characters in this word

An abstract idea shown by a mark or a diagram rather than by a picture of an object.

The shape comes from an old drawing of a hill, showing a mound or hillock.

A drawing of the thing itself, worn down over three thousand years into a few strokes.

This origin belongs to the traditional form 東; 东 is its simplified writing.

The traditional form 東 originally drew a full bag tied at both ends. The simplified 东 is a later shorthand, not the historical shape.
