Etymology

鏓 combines 金 (metal) with 悤, which likely contributes the sound. The exact historical development is uncertain.

Meaning mnemonic

The left side is metal 金, and the right side 悤 is a complex shape. Without a clear meaning, picture a mysterious metal object with an intricate design.

Reading mnemonic

For ソウ, imagine a soul (ソウ) trapped inside this mysterious metal object: soul -> ソウ.
