Etymology
嚧 is a phono-semantic compound with 口 (mouth) on the left and 盧 on the right, which likely provides the sound. The exact historical development is uncertain.
Meaning mnemonic
The mouth radical 口 beside the complex 盧 suggests a sound or utterance, but the specific meaning is obscure.
Reading mnemonic
For ロ, imagine a low, rumbling sound coming from the mouth: low -> ロ, as the mouth 口 produces a deep note.
