Etymology
The exact historical development of 宩 is uncertain. It visually combines 宀 (roof) and 米 (rice), but the original meaning and component relationship are unclear.
Meaning mnemonic
With no clear meaning, picture a roof 宀 over rice 米 as a simple visual scene: a storehouse for rice, though the actual meaning is unknown.
Reading mnemonic
For シ, imagine a single grain of rice under the roof: the word 'seed' sounds like シ, and rice grains are seeds stored under a roof.
