Etymology

磲 combines 石 (stone) with 渠, which likely contributes the sound. The exact historical development is uncertain.

Meaning mnemonic

The stone radical 石 suggests a connection to rocks or minerals, but the overall meaning is unclear. Picture a mysterious stone with the shape of 渠 carved into it.

Reading mnemonic

For キョ, imagine a giant stone key (キー) that fits into a stone lock: key -> キョ, and the stone is the 磲.
